Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Children have regular access to outdoor play where they can negotiate space, speed and direction, as they run or use wheeled toys.
Activities: Children enjoy working together to make dough, role playing with the dolls or using scissors to cut.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: The main curriculum focuses are children鈥檚 speech and language development, independence and confidence to make choices.
Communication: The manager and staff update them about their child's day during verbal handovers and posts on social media. However, staff do not always share specific information to parents about their child's development.
Programs and Resources: The passionate special educational needs coordinator works with the key person and parents to ensure children receive the extra support they need. Effective early assessments are used to help identify where children may need extra support.
Staff Training: She makes appropriate referrals to external agencies and works together with parents, supporting them to access available resources.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Staff and management greet families warmly at the door. Staff are kind and friendly and work hard to help children to feel at home in the setting. Children have positive relationships with staff who know the children well.
Safeguarding Training: The manager understands her role as the designated safeguarding lead of the setting and holds appropriate qualifications. The staff attend regular supervision meetings and have weekly safeguarding briefings.
Play and Learning Integration: Fine motor skills are developed through painting activities and using tools with the dough. Guided by adults, children enjoy using scissors to carefully cut paper. This helps to develop the small muscles of the hand, preparing them for later skills, such as writing.
Transition to Primary School: The manager has designed a curriculum to prepare children with the appropriate skills for the next stage of their learning.
Child Safety Management: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The staff can recognise the signs and symptoms of when a child may be at risk.
Children's Safety and Security: Children enter the setting happily and separate from their carers well. Staff and management greet families warmly at the door.
Happiness and Settling: Children form secure attachments with staff who know the children very well. This has a positive effect on children's confidence and emotional well-being.
Nutritional Menu: Good hygiene practices are in place and children learn about healthy food choices, which raises their awareness of leading a healthy lifestyle.
