Hayling Community Pre-School

Highlights from Latest Inspection

Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Since the last inspection, a number of successful changes have been made to improve the quality of the provision. • The manager ensures safe recruitment procedures are followed vigorously.

She places a strong emphasis on reviewing, evaluating and improving the service by including the views of staff when planning future improvements and seeking parents' feedback on how well these have been received. • A great strength of the pre-school is the nurturing and welcoming environment. Staff keep parents well informed of the progress that their children make, and provide suggestions about how to extend learning at home.

Parents speak highly of the staff ...team and comment that their children thoroughly enjoy their time at the pre-school. • All children, including those who have special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who speak English as additional language, enjoy their learning and make good progress. Staff make observations of children and know them well.

They gather important information from parents to help plan effectively for the children's individual development. It is not yet outstanding because: • The manager does not have a secure understanding of how well groups of children who attend the pre-school are progressing. • Staff do not make the most of opportunities to support children's mathematical development, such as their understanding of weight, measurement and capacity.
