Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good The manager reflects on the effectiveness of the provision. She has put in place strategies to raise the profile of the setting in the local area and to attract more families to the nursery, to aid sustainability.

Partnerships with parents are well established. Staff make themselves available to talk to parents at the beginning and end of the day, and hold meetings each term to discuss children's progress. Children learn respect for others and learn about the lives of their friends.

For example, they take turns to take home a teddy bear and parents write about what they do at home in the bear's diary. Staff make good use of the local area to extend... children's learning experiences. For example, they visit the local park and observe transport systems close to the setting.

Staff have established effective systems to observe children's learning. This helps them to track children's progress and plan for the next steps in their learning. Staff creatively organise a highly stimulating environment for children.

They provide children with a wide range of exciting toys and enjoyable learning experiences that helps to motivate them to learn. It is not yet outstanding because: Staff sometimes miss opportunities to further support children who are learning English as an additional language. At times, staff do not give children enough time to respond to questions.
