Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • The manager is passionate about providing high-quality childcare and leads a hardworking staff team. The manager works closely with staff to accurately identify areas for development and implements positive changes.

For example, they have developed areas of the room for children to develop their communication skills. • Partnerships with parents are strong. Parents are very complimentary about the preschool.

Staff regularly share information with parents about their child's day, routines and progress. They give parents ideas to continue to support children's learning at home. • Staff are knowledgeable about child development.

They take int...o account children's ages and stages of development well. For instance, they give high priority to supporting the emotional and social development of two-year-olds. • Children benefit from a wide range of activities that promotes their physical development.

For example, they thoroughly enjoy collecting leaves on a walk and develop the small muscles in their hands as they roll and manipulate dough. It is not yet outstanding because: • On occasion, staff do not make the best of opportunities to extend children's learning as they play, to build further on their good progress. • The monitoring of children's progress is not rigorous enough to analyse the progress made by different groups of children.
