Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good • The leadership team is totally committed in its approach towards providing the highest-quality early years provision, a vision it shares equally with the dedicated staff team.

Therefore, children benefit from a good introduction to their education and are developing skills for their future learning and readiness for school. • The leadership team gathers the views of staff, parents and children. This then enables it to reflect on practice and identify further ways to maximise the learning environment and everyday practice.

The children experience an excellent range of high-quality resources both indoors and outdoors. • Children are making good pro...gress given their starting points. Staff know their individual children well.

They support them with enthusiasm and commitment that successfully inspire children in their individual learning. However, the manager has not fully considered how she can track and monitor the progress of a wider range of groups of children to further enhance their planning for children's learning. • Staff provide a variety of interesting activities and experiences that children are eager to explore.

Children are enthusiastic and keen to take part. However, the planning of some activities for older children does not enable them to take a full and active role, as occasionally there are too many children participating at one time. • Staff in the baby room provide an extremely nurturing and gentle environment for babies.

Staff use routines shared by parents so that babies sleep, play and eat at familiar times. Babies settle quickly and thrive, confidently separating from their parents. • Partnerships with parents are extremely well established.

Staff work closely with parents and offer them excellent support and advice. They involve parents fully in all aspects of their children's learning. Parents commented positively on the extremely nurturing settling-in-procedures and very informative starting packs.
