Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good Partnerships with parents are superb. Parents are highly complimentary of the care and support their children receive from all staff. Specific training is offered to parents, utilising their skills and knowledge, to support and provide them with appropriate tools to support and enhance their children's individual needs.

The management team monitors staff performance very well. Regular supervision and support helps to quickly identify staff training needs and provide opportunities for staff to extend their knowledge and skills. As a result, the quality of teaching is good and outcomes for children are at least good or better.

Close bonds are formed ...between staff and children which support children to feel secure. Children thrive from close interactions from key staff, and staff and children enjoy spending time in each other's company. Children have access to a stimulating environment, both inside and outside.

There are a good range of toys and resources. Children have independent access to these helping them to adapt their play, make decisions and direct their own learning. As a result, children have fun and are consistently engaged in play.

It is not yet outstanding because: Staff do not consistently focus their teaching methods sharply enough on raising children's speaking skills to the highest level. This is particularly for those children aged between two and three. Staff do not always support older and more able children to extend their knowledge of letters and the sounds that these represent.
