Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good The management team ensure that staff, parents and children are fully included in the evaluation processes of the provision.

This, and the monitoring of staff practice, helps to identify a clear focus for improvement. Outcomes for children are good. Staff meet regularly as a team.

They have regular confidential supervision meetings with the manager. Staff are able to discuss their key children, their training needs and any concerns they may have. Staff demonstrate high levels of warmth towards the children in their care.

They use praise effectively and are strong role models. This helps to promote children's behaviour well and to foster th...eir emotional attachments. Staff's relationships with the local schools are very effective.

This fosters consistency and continuity for children's care, learning and development. It is not yet outstanding because: Opportunities to increase the information provided to parents to help them to better support their child's learning at home are not yet fully maximised. Staff are, at times, inconsistent in using a range of strategies to challenge children to think through problems and find answers for themselves.
