Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good Staff provide a range of activities that reflects children's interests and next steps in learning. Children choose what they want to do from the well-resourced environment. Staff have effective systems in place to identify swiftly any children who have special educational needs.

They work closely with parents to gain the support that is needed to help close gaps in their learning. Children are particularly well supported as they transition to nursery and school. Staff organise regular visits to the school where children will attend, to familiarise children with their new teachers and routines.

Parents are kept informed on all aspects of their child...ren's care, learning and development. Parents are complimentary about the nursery and the positive impact staff have on their children. The management team ensures that staff and parents share their views about the nursery.

This helps to evaluate the provision effectively and to identify aspects for further development. It is not yet outstanding because: Staff do not recognise some occasions where the learning opportunities for older children can be extended further, to provide them with greater challenges. Although staff complete mandatory training, they have not fully considered looking at a broader range of topics to help expand their teaching skills even further.
