Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good • Staff support older children's early reading skills exceptionally well. Children enjoy an increasing range of books and know that print carries meaning. • Good hygiene routines are evident throughout the nursery.

This supports children's physical health very well. • All staff are knowledgeable and have a good overall understanding of how to promote children's learning. A wide range of experiences are provided that motivate children and support their good progress.

• The manager reviews the progress children make over time. This helps to narrow any possible gaps in their learning. Strong partnerships with external professionals who are also involv...ed with children further support children's individual needs.

• Good use is made of additional funding for children in receipt of early years pupil premium. This targets any areas where children may require additional help to support their continued good progress. • Children's behaviour is good.

Staff share clear, age-appropriate expectations with children that help them to manage their feelings and behaviour in an acceptable way. • Some experiences provided for younger children do not always fully engage them and promote their learning to an even higher level. • The manager has not fully considered how information gathered from parents can be used even more effectively to drive forward improvements in the nursery.
