Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Children enjoy a range of interesting activities in the garden. However, at times, children's outdoor play is interrupted to take part in adult-led activities indoors. This means children do not gain the maximum benefit from learning outdoors.
Philosophy: Little Gems Montessori Nursery follows the Montessori approach.
Activities: Staff provide a wide range of resources and plan interesting activities to enhance children's learning. For instance, children enjoy making pictures using real rose petals and leaves.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good. Children's language and communication skills are very well supported. This is illustrated when staff introduce new words, such as 'tadpole' and 'frog spawn', as children play.
Communication: Parent partnerships are strong. Staff share children's development records and hold regular consultations to ensure parents are kept up to date with their child's progress.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Parents speak highly of the staff team and say how supportive and approachable it is.
Safeguarding Training: Staff have a thorough and clear understanding of safeguarding and child protection. They know the indicators of possible abuse or neglect and the processes to follow if they have concerns about children's welfare.
Play and Learning Integration: The highly qualified staff team provides a calm, welcoming and stimulating environment for children to play and learn, indoors and outside.
Transition to Primary School: All children make good progress from their starting points. They gain the skills they need for their next stage in learning, such as school.
Child Safety Management: Staff successfully teach children how to keep themselves safe. For example, children enjoy learning how to cross the road safely using toy traffic lights and a pedestrian crossing.
Happiness and Settling: Children are happy and settled at the nursery.
Nutritional Menu: Staff positively promote children's physical well-being and understanding of healthy lifestyles. For instance, they encourage children to follow appropriate handwashing routines and regularly talk to children about making healthy food choices.
