Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Staff work well with teachers from the site school that many children attend, to complement children's development in school.

• Staff maintain safe and secure play areas and supervise children well to help protect them from harm. They help children to learn about keeping safe, such as alerting them to possible hazards and explaining why things are unsafe. • Children behave well and develop positive attitudes.

For example, children share, include others well in their play, and use good manners. Staff are good role models who adapt strategies to manage children's behaviour consistently and successfully. • Staff value professional development to buil...d on their skills, and to provide enjoyable new activities for children to experience.

For instance, they research scientific activities to recreate with children, such as making volcanoes that erupt and rockets that launch. • It is not yet outstanding because: • On occasion, the playroom becomes noisy and staff are not able to hear and include the voices of some younger children to encourage them to share their views and ask questions. • Staff do not consistently support children to follow their own ideas and to encourage their creativity even further.
