Shining Stars Nursery & Preschool

Highlights from Latest Inspection

Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Leaders and managers have made improvements to the provision since the last inspection. They have worked closely with local authority early years improvement officers to reflect on their practice and make the required changes to provide a good quality of provision overall.

• Staff have a good understanding how young children learn and develop. They provide appropriate activities and experiences that promote children's development across all areas of learning. • There are effective procedures to identify swiftly any children who have special educational needs (SEN) and/or disabilities.

Staff work closely with other professionals to help close gaps ...in children's learning and provide targeted support to help them progress. • Staff know the children well and develop strong bonds with them. Children are confident with high levels of self-esteem.

They enjoy the time they spend in this welcoming environment. It is not yet outstanding because: • On occasions, the organisation of group activities does not provide enough opportunities for all children to concentrate and be even more engaged in their play. • Staff do not ensure all parents are given enough information about the plans for their child's future learning needs and how these can be followed up at home.
