Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: The outdoor area is a real asset to the setting. Children have ample opportunities to develop their imagination, curiosity and exploratory skills, and to manage risk.
Communication: Staff involve parents in their children's learning. For example, they provide a letter of the week so that parents can help the children hunt for items beginning with the letter at home.
Programs and Resources: Partnership working is good. The dedicated management team works closely with the special educational needs coordinator to secure links with external agencies. This ensures that children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are fully supported and make good progress from their starting points.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Parents speak highly of the setting. They comment that it is like a 'second home' and feel that their children are very well cared for by the staff team and that they have great opportunities to learn.
Safeguarding Training: Staff have a sound understanding of the procedures they must follow in case of concerns about children or adults. They regularly complete training to keep their safeguarding and child protection knowledge up to date.
Play and Learning Integration: Children have good opportunities to play and learn, inside and outdoors. Staff know the children well.
Transition to Primary School: All children make good progress from their starting points. They acquire the skills and dispositions needed for the next stage of their learning.
Child Safety Management: Safeguarding is effective. Staff have a sound understanding of the procedures they must follow in case of concerns about children or adults.
Happiness and Settling: Children thoroughly enjoy their time at the setting. They learn to do things for themselves and become extremely confident and independent.
Nutritional Menu: Through the daily routine, children learn about the benefits of being active and eating healthily.

From the Rainbow Nursery School - Ormond Road
Since its founding in 1979, Rainbow has served as the hub of the neighbourhood.
Mrs. Julia Hunter founded the Rainbow organisation, and in 2016, she handed the reins to Mrs. Lavinia Wilkins.
Mrs. Hunter continues to work part-time with Rainbow as a member of the staff.
According to our concept, children must feel secure, content, safe, and appreciated in order to reach their greatest potential.
Through research and engagement, we hope to foster a love of learning in our students, helping them develop strong peer relationships and social skills that will help them succeed in primary school and beyond.
Our electronic learning diaries, which will strengthen the connection between home and school, are currently being introduced.
The RAINBOW schedule adheres to a fundamental rhythm of learning through unstructured play and adult-led activities while being flexible.
We regularly host viewing sessions and parent consultations so that parents may get to know one another and talk to the experts about their child's progress.
All groups (morning and afternoon) attend a Christmas concert, a school outing, and a sports day during the summer term, and we encourage parent engagement on these days.
Every child needs to participate in a carefully thought-out schedule of experiences according to their developmental stage.
The play activities offered by RAINBOW, which take into account their particular needs, are a crucial component of the curriculum.
