What Ofsted Say about us

“Children are very confident in the familiar surroundings. They quickly settle into their play and engage with their friends and all staff. Staff have high expectations of children, who learn to cooperate and negotiate in their play.”
“Children develop self-help skills through the daily routines and the effective support from staff. Children learn to choose what to play with and where to play, extending their play from inside to outside and back again.”
“Children’s communication skills are very well supported. Staff have completed additional training and initiated support to help children who lack confidence and the ability to communicate their needs.”

“Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) receive excellent levels of support. Staff identify their needs and work in partnership with parents and other professionals. They plan activities and experiences that link to children’s best ways of learning. Children’s achievements are celebrated, however small, and shared with parents.”
