Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Leaders strive to provide the very best care and education for children. They support the acting manager well, who is developing greater confidence in her new role. • Parents are overwhelmingly happy.

They commend staff on their knowledge of individual children and are impressed with how quickly children develop confidence and social skills. They welcome opportunities to discover what their children do and to discuss their progress, for example, at parents' evenings and stay-and-play sessions. • Flexible arrangements to settle in new children help them to develop a sense of belonging.

They build positive relationships with key staff, who meet thei...r care needs well. • Staff diligently organise the environment to help support children's learning, ensuring they provide plenty of opportunities and resources to support their overall development. This contributes to the good progress that children make.

• Children are curious and motivated learners who are keen to participate. They demonstrate a positive attitude that helps to prepare them well for later learning. It is not yet outstanding because: • Plans for learning do not always focus precisely enough on what children most need to learn next.

Leaders do not use information from assessments to ensure teaching is meticulously planned to support children to make the best possible progress in their learning. • Occasionally, children do not have enough opportunities to express their ideas and share their experiences during play. At times, staff do not give children time to think and respond to their skilful questions which are intended to extend children's learning.
