Effectiveness of leadership and management is outstanding

The provider, managers and staff demonstrate an uncompromising pursuit of excellence. Plans for the development of the nursery focus directly on the needs of the children.

The special educational needs coordinator works tirelessly to ensure that no child falls behind. She is highly organised and secures all the support from outside professionals as children need.

support staff to develop their skills and prioritise bespoke training.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff are well qualified. They are inspirational and provide teaching that is worthy of sharing with others. For example, they expertly engage all children in language-rich activities for extended periods of time, including children who speak English as an additional language. All children make rapid progress in their communication, language and literacy, which builds a solid foundation for future learning. Children of all ages show an eagerness to look at books, listen to stories and enthusiastically join in with familiar songs and rhymes. Older children enjoy meaningful conversations with their peers and staff, as they eagerly share their ideas and experiences. Staff provide exciting and challenging activities which reflect children's interests. Older children make predictions as they carry out experiments. Younger children develop their imaginative skills as they take part in a tea party with their toys.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

The key-person system works extremely well. A recently implemented 'buddy' key person for each child offers additional continuity of care. A qualified cook provides a wide range of healthy and nutritious foods. Children eagerly plant and grow vegetables, which they help to cook and then taste. Staff find this highly effective in promoting children's understanding of healthy food choices. All children access exciting outdoor learning and physical development opportunities every day. Children benefit immensely from activities that help to develop their understanding of their community and the wider world. They learn about their own and other cultural festivals, contribute to food parcels for a local charity group and run a cake stall to raise money for a local hospital.

p.3

Outcomes for children are outstanding

Children of all ages are extremely motivated and keen to learn and show high levels of concentration and enjoyment in their play. They develop strong social skills and quickly grow in confidence. Babies are curious and show secure emotional attachments to staff. Toddlers are inquisitive and delight in exploring the flour, water, bark and sand. Older children immerse themselves in imaginative play. They dress up as fire and police officers and are extremely articulate, independent and competent learners.
