Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Children enjoy plenty of fresh air and exercise. They develop their physical skills as they ride tricycles, balance on tyres and run around in the garden.
Philosophy: The manager has a clear vision for the curriculum which focuses on developing children's physical, communication and social skills.
Activities: Staff plan suitably challenging activities that help children to build on what they already know and can do.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Children build strong attachments with staff, who are patient, kind and caring. Children behave well. They play cooperatively and take turns.
Communication: Parents report that they are happy with the care and education that their children receive. Staff keep them updated about their children's progress.
Programs and Resources: Staff are quick to recognise when children may need extra support with their learning and seek guidance from the SENCo. The SENCo works in partnership with parents and other professionals to help meet any identified additional needs.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Children arrive at the nursery happily and settle quickly. Staff know their key children well and plan exciting activities that motivate them to learn.
Safeguarding Training: Staff have a good understanding of the signs and symptoms that might indicate that a child is at risk of abuse. They understand the procedures to follow to report concerns about a child or potential allegations being made against a member of staff.
Play and Learning Integration: Children are keen to learn and confidently explore their environment, making their own choices in their play. Staff count older children as they go to the table for their lunch, which helps them develop an understanding of the meaning of number.

We are happy to have been creating our own environmentally friendly baby wipes for the past few years rather than purchasing them.
Did you know that 90 percent of wet wipes include some kind of plastic, making them typically non-biodegradable? To learn more about how you can produce them, go here.
We can educate kids about where different foods originate from and grow items that can be used in nursery activities thanks to the allotments and potting sheds that we have at both of our nurseries. We also produce our own organic food for the kids to sample.
Recycling food trash, cans, bottles, and other materials is important.
Upcycling is a creative approach to reuse old or worthless items, which is a terrific way to decrease waste and benefit the environment.
Reduce the usage of plastic - We play with natural materials and gather items from the garden and the natural world to play with to reduce the quantity of plastic toys that we use at the nursery.
