Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: The inspector viewed all areas of the provision and discussed the safety and suitability of the premises.
Activities: Children do not receive high-quality educational experiences and activities that continually inspire them.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Children's emotional development is not promoted, and they do not make good levels of progress.
Communication: Parents share their thoughts about their children's achievements at home, verbally at handovers and by adding comments to their children's learning records online.
Programs and Resources: The support and learning opportunities for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are inadequate.
Staff Training: Staff do not have the necessary skills or knowledge of children's individual specific needs to meet their care and learning requirements.
Safeguarding Training: Staff understand the risks posed to children from extremist behaviours and radicalisation and know the appropriate safeguarding procedures.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Some children, especially younger ones, are left without a key person assigned to them, making them upset and unsure of what is expected.
Play and Learning Integration: Children quickly become bored, which results in poor behaviour. The resources available do not excite or interest them.
Transition to Primary School: Children who are due to go to school have opportunities to develop skills such as independence.
Child Safety Management: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff recognise signs and symptoms that may indicate children are at risk.
Children's Safety and Security: Children's emotional development is not promoted, leading to frustration and poor behaviour.
Happiness and Settling: Younger and quieter children are often overlooked by staff. Some children are upset and unsure of what is expected of them.
