Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Children are motivated to play and learn. They arrive excitedly and immediately choose what to do from a good range of interesting resources and activities.

Children engage well and show determination and concentration during play. • The manager offers good professional development opportunities to staff to increase their skills. For example, staff have completed recognised playwork qualifications and use their new knowledge to improve children's play experiences further.

• Staff support children's understanding of leading a healthy lifestyle well. For example, they provide healthy snacks and encourage children to follow good hygiene practices, in...cluding handwashing procedures. • Children behave well.

Staff are good role models and treat children with kindness and respect. They gently remind children about the rules to help them to understand and follow expected behaviours. Children share and take turns in games.

• Staff form positive partnerships with parents and keep them well informed of the activities offered to their children. It is not yet outstanding because: • Staff have not considered further ways to gain more in-depth information about children's interests and achievements from school, in order to plan activities which complement children's learning and enjoyment more. • Staff do not consistently gather the views of parents to help them improve the setting even further.
