Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI

Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Staff positively promote a nurturing, calm environment, which helps children to feel valued, safe and secure.
Philosophy: The nursery school follows the Montessori approach to learning.
Activities: Children persevere to fit varying blocks together to reconstruct the cube, showing great skill. They make 'rainbow cakes' with play dough.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Children are highly motivated and eager to join in. They concentrate on their chosen activities, sometimes for sustained periods. Staff encourage children to develop strong mathematical skills.
Communication: Parents receive good information about their children's development and care. They comment that their children have flourished in the secure and welcoming environment and that the staff are hardworking and committed.
Programs and Resources: Children who have special educational needs are very well supported. Staff put effective programmes in place to help all children make good developmental progress from their starting points.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: The provider/manager and her long-serving staff team work well together. They strive to improve continually the care and early education that children receive.
Safeguarding Training: All staff have completed safeguarding training.
Play and Learning Integration: Children are given plenty of time and space to explore at their own pace and try things for themselves. They show good imagination as they make 'rainbow cakes' with play dough, and warn staff to be careful as they are hot.
Transition to Primary School: Children are confident to talk to visitors to the setting and show pride in their 'learning journey' scrapbooks.
Diversity Management: Staff do not provide many opportunities for children to develop and use their home languages in their play and learning.
Child Safety Management: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The manager and staff have a secure knowledge of how to protect children's welfare.
Children's Safety and Security: Children enter the setting very confidently and happily greet the staff. Some children laugh as they push their parents out of the door, showing a strong sense of security.
