They talk about recent visits to the dentist and how cleaning their teeth helps to remove bacteria. • At times, staff do not fully extend children's learning experiences to help them to solve problems and test out their ideas. • Staff have not identified how to fully involve parents of children who speak English as an additional language to further enhance the opportunities offered to maximise their learning.
