Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good • Partnerships with parents are strong.

Parents speak highly of how the setting's promotion of healthy eating and lifestyles has supported their children's development of good habits at home. • There is a broad range of interesting and challenging resources within the free-flow environment. Children confidently make choices about where they would like to play.

• The key-person system works effectively to engage parents. For example, they have regular meetings to discuss children's progress. Parents are encouraged to take part in events such as sports day.

• The managers have high expectations for the nursery. They use feedback from profess...ionals, families and staff to identify and develop areas for improvement. • All children make good progress from their starting points.

This includes those with special educational needs and/or disabilities and those who speak English as an additional language. • Children are supported to keep themselves safe. For example, they carry out risk assessments and develop their early literacy skills, using clipboards to complete reports of their findings.

• At times, the staff's assessments and observations for starting points are not as precise as possible. This would enable them to support children to make even further progress. • Occasionally during daily routines, staff do not engage children and encourage them to fully participate during transitions.
