This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Children's fine motor skills are promoted throughout the setting through a range of activities, such as play dough and threading. However, children in the baby room have too few opportunities to develop their climbing skills.
Activities: Recently, staff have taught children about the life cycles of some animals. Children watched caterpillars and frogs change over time, learning new language and enjoying new experiences.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Children's personal, social and emotional development is well supported by staff using persona dolls. This has enabled children to understand how they are feeling and seek support.
Communication: Parents speak highly of the staff. They receive regular feedback about what their child is learning and what they will be focusing on to support development further.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Staff tickle and provide praise and encouragement, resulting in children laughing and smiling, having a positive experience. Strong bonds are created with children.
Safeguarding Training: Staff have recently attended speech and language training, which has had a positive impact on the teaching strategies used and outcomes for children.
Play and Learning Integration: Children play collaboratively together and use their imagination to create new role-play scenarios.
Transition to Primary School: Two- to three-year-old children are encouraged to be independent but this development of independence is not consistently promoted across other rooms.
Child Safety Management: The manager and provider have robust knowledge about how to keep children safe. Staff are up to date with their knowledge and regularly discuss safeguarding scenarios as a team.
