p.1

The provision is inadequate

Children's safety cannot be assured. The premises is not secure at all times. This means any person can enter the premises without supervision. Daily checks conducted by staff do not identify potential hazards to children to help keep them safe, particularly outdoors and the baby room. The baby room is unsafe, with many hazards.

p.2

The provision is inadequate

Children's behaviour is poorly managed by staff. Children throw objects, climb on furniture, push each other, and hit out. They are not always helped to learn about right and wrong. This hinders children's learning and puts them at risk.

p.2

The provision is inadequate

Many children are distressed on the day of inspection or left for long periods to cry. This is because they are hurt by other children. In addition, other children are not supported by a familiar key person. Children's emotional well-being is not supported well.

p.2

The provision is inadequate

Some children quickly become disengaged and wander around aimlessly because opportunities and experiences are not planned well to meet their individual needs. However, some children enjoy some activities provided. For example, children show enjoyment as they splash in water and play imaginatively with soft-play equipment. Nevertheless, these experiences lack purpose and intention, other than to keep children occupied. Staff do not support children to develop a positive attitude towards learning.

need to do better?

n Ongoing support for staff by leaders is ineffective. Staff report some support and guidance from the newly appointed manager, although this is ineffective. Staff do not receive effective training to help to raise the quality of teaching of the curriculum. n The key-person system is not promoted well, and children do not consistently benefit from developing secure attachments with a key person. Staff changes and shortages mean children are not always familiar with some staff. Children's emotional well-being is not successfully supported. n Some children become distressed because of the changes in the environment, and because they find it to be chaotic and noisy. They do not demonstrate a positive outlook to their learning. Children's sense of security is not consistently promoted by staff. n Poor leadership means that all staff, including the newly appointed manager, are unsupported. Since the last inspection and enforcement action, leaders have not

taken swift action to improve. However, the new manager is keen to improve and is working in partnership with the local authority to address significant

need to do better?

19 July 2022 weaknesses in practice and provision. n Leaders do not have clear oversight of the day-to-day running of the nursery. There is a lack of clarity between staff and the manager around the roles leaders hold. Leadership and management is ineffective. n The manager describes the curriculum intent well. However, this is not effective due to weaknesses in the implementation of the curriculum by staff. Children rarely engage in activities. Teaching and interactions are varied. For example, some staff spend time sitting with children and interact positively with them. Other staff, however, spend large periods visually supervising children and do not always interact purposefully with them to help to promote positive behaviour and learning. n Children are not well prepared for the next stages in their learning and when they move on to school. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) do not swiftly receive the support they need. This is because

there is a high turnover of staff and early intervention is delayed. n Children benefit from healthy snacks and freshly prepared meals every day to help to promote healthy habits. Staff remind children to have a drink to help keep them hydrated, particularly during the extremely hot weather conditions. Staff promote children's self-help skills, such as when children confidently and keenly serve themselves during mealtimes. n Parents speak very positively about the care and education provided to their children. They welcome regular communication and monthly updates of their children's development. They say they experience good partnership with staff and notice some recent improvements. For example, parents say they enjoy sharing the books from nursery with children to help continue learning at home.

p.3

Safeguarding

The arrangements for safeguarding are not effective.

p.3

Safeguarding

There are significant weaknesses in assessing risk and the premises is not secure. This means children's safety cannot be assured. Children are not supported well to help them to feel safe and secure, due to a chaotic environment and changes to staff. The new manager, deputy manager and staff successfully explain the procedures for raising their safeguarding concerns within the organisation and to external agencies, such as Tower Hamlets local authority. Staff know what to do if a child is at risk of female genital mutilation and acts of terrorism and radicalisation.
