What is it like to attend this early years setting?

The provision is outstanding

Staff are consistent in praising children and making them feel special. They use a wide variety of methods to promote children's good behaviour. As a result, children demonstrate exemplary friendships and behaviour.

Children are engrossed in a wealth of captivating and highly challenging activities and experiences, whic...h staff expertly plan in great detail. Children take part in an activity to design odd socks. This activity is planned to help children learn about differences and anti-bullying.

Children patiently take turns while playing games. For example, they take turns to tell their friends what they do that makes them smile. Staff sensitively help children to express their feelings or worries.

What does the early years setting do well and what does it need to do better?

Excellent relationships with parents are in place. Parents are invited into the setting to attend special events with their children, such as a teddy-bears picnic. Staff also provide parents with an array of ideas to continue children's learning at home.

Children start school with an abundance of knowledge and skills and a love of learning.Staff skilfully support children's physical development. For example, older children skilfully negotiate pathways on balance bicycles in the outdoor play area.

Younger children competently use scissors and manipulate dough to make models. Toddlers develop their large-muscle skills. They move well as they walk up steps and manoeuvre themselves down the slide.

Staff are passionate, driven and show a complete dedication to providing the highest-quality care and education for all children.The leadership team celebrates staff's individual skills and interests.

Staff attend training to develop their knowledge. This significantly contributes to staff being confident and helps to maintain the exceptional quality of education already in place.Staff demonstrate a deep understanding of children's learning needs and consistently deliver high-quality interactions that build on children's speech and language skills effectively.

Safeguarding

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.

The leadership team and staff have a very secure knowledge of safeguarding and child protection. They clearly describe the procedures to follow if they are concerned about a child in their care or an adult working with them. Staff are equally aware of the indicators of abuse, including any concerns associated with female genital mutilation or radicalisation.

Staff take part in team discussions, and they access a wide range of training opportunities to keep abreast of topics such as county lines and cuckooing. Robust recruitment procedures and regular checks of ongoing suitability ensure that all staff are suitable to work with children.
