Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Partnerships with other professionals are strong.

Staff keep them regularly updated about children's achievements to support children's continued learning. • Staff provide stimulating indoor and outdoor environments for the children. Play materials are engaging and readily accessible.

Children make confident and independent choices about their play and learning. • Staff value parents as contributors to their children's learning. They provide ideas on how parents can continue their children's learning at home.

Parents can access their child's learning journal at any time. • Children behave very well. Staff act as positive role models and e...ffectively support children to respect each other.

Children follow instructions, take turns and use good manners. • Children form secure attachments with their key person. They settle well soon after starting.

Parents speak highly of the setting and comment on the 'homely' atmosphere where staff know the children well. It is not yet outstanding because: • The manager does not fully utilise the already good systems for staff supervision to further support, coach and mentor staff to raise their practice to an even higher level. • The monitoring of children's overall progress does not identify how well the gaps in achievements between different groups of children are closing.
