Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Diverse Books and Toys: Children have good levels of respect and understanding for other people's similarities and differences. For example, they learn about a wide range of celebrations and events traditional to other religious beliefs and countries, such as Diwali and Eid
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: Children independently follow good health and hygiene routines and discuss washing away bad germs before mealtimes. All children challenge and develop their physical abilities. For instance, they negotiate obstacles such as balancing and climbing beams, tyres and wooden ladders
Activities: Staff skilfully build on children's ideas and interests well to extend their learning. For example, children who have a keen interest in a story about Santa, go on to wrap different items as 'presents.' Children then enjoy guessing what the presents may be as they unwrap them. This brings the story alive and helps them to develop good hand-eye coordination
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: Children's behaviour is impeccable, and they are incredibly polite. Their attitudes towards learning and to each other are outstanding
Communication: The manager and staff establish positive relationships with parents and communicate with them regularly. They keep them involved and informed in their children's learning
Programs and Resources: Staff establish positive partnerships with other early years professionals. This helps provide all children with a positive and consistent approach to their shared care and learning experiences. This includes those children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities
Staff Training: For instance, staff regularly share helpful tips and strategies with outside specialists, such as speech and language therapists. This helps staff to enable all children to reach their full potential
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Staff get to know individual children and their personalities well. This helps children settle confidently, quickly and happily into their play
Safeguarding Training: All staff, including the manager, have a good knowledge and understanding of the safeguarding and child protection policies and procedures
Play and Learning Integration: Staff provide children with stimulating activities to cover all seven areas of learning
Transition to Primary School: Staff ensure that they provide all children with the skills they need to succeed and make good progress. This includes those who speak English as an additional language
Diversity Management: Children have good levels of respect and understanding for other people's similarities and differences
Child Safety Management: For example, they complete thorough risk assessments to cover all areas of practice
Children's Safety and Security: Children learn how to keep themselves and others safe. For instance, they learn how to cross the road safely and remain safe near water during regular trips to the beach and walks within the local community
