Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good • The nursery is well organised.

Managers fully understand their safeguarding responsibilities. Staff effectively implement a range of records and documents that support their practice. Children's safety and well-being is promoted at a good level.

• Staff are warm and friendly. The well-established key-person system helps staff get to know children and their families in depth. They support children to settle in and become familiar with their surroundings.

Children are happy and content attending. • The environment is bright and stimulating. Staff provide children with access to fun and interesting activities throughout.

The provis...ion for outdoor play is particularly strong. Children have great fun exploring water and sand using a variety of equipment outside. Children are keen, enthusiastic and motivated to learn.

• The provision for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) is exceptional. The provision is carefully adapted to meet their individual needs. Managers and staff work incredibly hard with these children to ensure they benefit from targeted support.

Any gaps in children's attainment are effectively addressed. • Partnership working is strong. Managers and staff work closely with parents and a range of professionals.

They use varied methods to communicate two-way information about children's care and education to foster excellent continuity. • Managers have an overview of children's progress throughout the nursery. However, they do not yet make the best use of this in order to promote outstanding attainment for all different groups of children, including the most able.

• Overall teaching is good. However, children do not consistently benefit from outstanding teaching throughout the nursery. There is scope for managers to extend staff's professional development and focus on further enhancing teaching skills.

• Self-evaluation is in place. However, managers do not always make the best use of this to reflect as well as possible on the overall quality of the provision. Therefore, they are currently unable to elevate all aspects of practice to the highest standard.
