Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Diverse Books and Toys: Children self-register on arrival and cheerfully sing the 'hello song', welcoming their peers. They have access to a wide range of activities where they can select their own materials and use their creative skills.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Babies explore their senses in a wintery, heavy-duty plastic tray with snow and arctic animals. The materials are edible so that they are safe for the babies. Children use 'calm spaces' throughout the day. Older children recognise when they need a little quiet time and access the space independently.
Activities: Children enjoy song, rhyme and story activities. They use small-world characters and materials to tell their own stories. Staff engage in conversation and narrate children's play.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Staff embed these through daily routines and play. Consequently, children have many opportunities to recall and repeat new skills, which helps them to retain knowledge and build on their learning.
Communication: Leaders encourage children to make healthy choices with their food. However, on occasion, hygiene practices are not effectively implemented.
Programs and Resources: Staff put detailed plans in place to provide interventions so that children make progress. However, children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are not always supported at times of transition.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Staff are supported in their professional development by a highly experienced manager. Staff undergo regular supervisions, when leaders discuss training needs, staff's key children and staff well-being.
Safeguarding Training: Leaders have a strong commitment to safeguarding. Staff access annual training and know the signs of abuse to look out for. Leaders and staff know who to contact if they are concerned about a child.
Play and Learning Integration: Staff support children's developing physical skills. They practise yoga, where they learn to control and move their bodies. Children also take part in daily play dough activities, where they use a range of small-muscle skills.
Transition to Primary School: Staff provide activities where children learn valuable social skills, such as turn-taking and sharing. For example, pre-school children take turns to find a number card when playing a mathematics game.
Child Safety Management: External doors are locked and can only be opened from the outside by ringing the bell and a member of staff coming to open it. Visitors' identities are checked on arrival, and a log is kept of who is present on the premises.
Children's Safety and Security: Staff offer praise and encouragement to help children feel safe and secure. They remind children of the rules, such as 'kind hands' and 'walking feet' when playing with others.
Happiness and Settling: Children use 'calm spaces' throughout the day. Older children recognise when they need a little quiet time and access the space independently.
Nutritional Menu: Leaders encourage children to make healthy choices with their food. Staff offer a varied menu to ensure they eat a healthy, balanced diet.
