This provision is good

n The manager and her staff successfully create a welcoming and stimulating environment to help children learn. They are very attentive to children's needs and help them to feel comfortable and relaxed at the pre-school. This helps them to explore the interesting resources set out for them. n Staff are caring and kind. They consistently praise the children, helping to promote confidence and a sense of self-esteem. Consequently, children develop strong emotional attachments and they behave well. n Staff are committed to developing their knowledge and skills through continuous professional development. For instance, staff have completed training about supporting children's communication skills.

helpful to them. This helps them to feel very involved in their children's learning and the progress they are making. n Partnerships with external agencies and other providers are strong. Staff effectively share information about children's care and learning. They ensure that there is a continuous approach to helping to meet children's specific needs. n The manager's systems for overseeing the quality of teaching do not evaluate the impact of staff practice rigorously enough in order to raise the level even higher. n Staff do not always make the best use of available opportunities to raise children's awareness of different people and their communities, and to motivate their interests even further.

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff have a secure understanding of their roles and responsibilities to protect children. Information gained from a broad range of child protection training is regularly shared within the staff team. As a result, they are provided with comprehensive information about how to ensure children's welfare and safety is promoted. This includes protecting children from extreme views. Staff complete thorough risk assessments to ensure a safe environment. The manager follows effective recruitment and vetting procedures to help ensure that staff working with children are suitable to do so. They receive a detailed induction to help them to become familiar with the pre-school's policy and procedures. Staff complete regular observations of children's achievements and use these to check their ongoing progress.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff know children well and provide activities that they know will interest them. For instance, older children have fun discovering how to create different colours by mixing paints together. They enthusiastically say, 'Look, look I made green'. Staff skilfully extend their learning and encourage them to paint the letters of the name. Younger children enjoy learning how to make marks in the paint using a variety of toy vehicles. Children initiate real-life situations when playing with pretend road safety equipment. Staff use a range of questioning techniques to encourage children's emerging language skills. They use additional funding effectively to support the specific needs of individual children. For instance, additional musical activities have had a positive impact on helping to increase children's confidence.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff have strong bonds with children. They are sensitive to children's needs and help younger children to settle quickly. Older and more-established children confidently enter the pre-school and share their news with adults. Staff place a high emphasis on promoting children's physical development. For example, children have fun joining in with musical activities and dance along to familiar music and nursery rhymes. Staff ensure that they have ample opportunity to have fresh air and exercise. For instance, children enjoy outdoor play and have fun making dens. They learn how to keep themselves and others safe when playing in large cardboard boxes and when they build construction items with pretend bricks.

p.3

Outcomes for children are good

Children successfully develop key skills for their next steps in learning, such as starting school. They make good progress from their staring points. Children are eager to learn and make their own choices. Older children are independent in their personal care needs. They know sounds that letters represent, and they attempt to write these. Children count during their play and recognise low numbers. Younger children enjoy looking at books, listening to stories and joining in with familiar songs, developing their early language skills. They explore resources that interest them and show curiosity about how things work, such as the pretend speed camera.
