They help children to understand how to behave. • Partnerships with parents are good. Staff keep parents fully informed about their children's care.

They encourage parents to support their children's learning at home. Children's individual care needs are met well. • Staff learn some words in children's first language.

Wherever possible, they use these languages to communicate with the children. Childre...n learn to acknowledge their own first language and to appreciate other languages spoken in the nursery. • Staff teach children about other cultures.

It is not yet outstanding because: • At times during activities, staff miss opportunities to develop further children's understanding and use of mathematical words. • The manager has not yet focused on checking the progress of various groups of children to help ensure that any gaps in achievement between them are identified and closed quickly.
