Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Partnerships with parents are excellent. Staff value parent contributions and regularly update them on the progress their children make.

Children thrive on these consistent working relationships and they make good progress in all areas of their learning. • Children's transition to school is planned very well and secure relationships are formed with all those involved in the transition process. Children move on to school with ease and feel well prepared.

• Children experience a wide range of outings that help to promote their understanding of their local community and the wider world. For example, children attend regular story and craft sessions at... the local library. • Staff are sensitive and supportive of the varying needs of children, which contributes greatly to their well-being.

They work closely with other professionals and welcome their advice and support. Parents value the support and guidance that they receive from staff. • The outdoor area is vibrant, interesting and exciting.

Children enjoy exploring the many activities and investigate in the forest area. They are physically active and learn to stay safe as they manage small acceptable risks in their play. • The manager monitors and tracks children's progress across all areas of learning.

Additional funding is used well to help close any gaps in children's learning. It is not yet outstanding because: • Occasionally, activities are too adult-led and staff do not encourage children to find their own ways of doing things. • Staff do not consistently consider further ways to fully sustain children's engagement and enjoyment during some activities.
