Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Children have daily opportunities to be outside in the fresh air and play with a wide range of resources. This helps to support their good health and physical well-being.
Activities: Children enjoy a wide range of activities which reflect their interests and what they need to learn next.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Children develop a love of books through planned story times and spontaneous moments when they cuddle up with staff to listen to their favourite story. Staff observe and track children's progress, which they share online with parents.
Communication: There are good partnerships with parents. Staff work hard to get to know the family as a unit, which helps them to tailor children's care and learning to meet their individual needs. Parents comment on the good communication with their key person and other staff.
Programs and Resources: The management uses the money from additional funding well to provide experiences for children that support their learning. For example, resources which light up have been purchased for the sensory room. This provides somewhere for all children to relax, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Staff feel valued and enjoy working in the pre-school.
Safeguarding Training: All staff have a secure understanding of their role to safeguard children. They know the signs and symptoms which may indicate that children are at risk of harm or abuse.
Play and Learning Integration: Toddlers show fascination in role play. They recreate experiences from home as they 'cook' the meal in a pan, before carefully tipping it out into a bowl to serve.
Transition to Primary School: There is good support to help children who are moving on to school. Staff encourage school teachers to visit the children in the pre-school and complete detailed reports which they pass to the teachers. Staff provide children with photos of the school environment and school uniforms to help children to develop the confidence to move on to the next stage of their learning.
Child Safety Management: The inspector viewed all areas of the pre-school and discussed the safety and suitability of the premises.
Children's Safety and Security: They are aware of the correct procedure to follow if they have concerns about the conduct of a colleague or the management. This helps to keep children safe.
