What the inspector found

One grade is one visit. A run of them tells you whether it has been good for years or has only just got there.

What it is like to attend

Staff welcome children at the door and children leave their parents with ease.

Children arrive happy, confident and ready to learn. They run into the nursery and go straight to the activities they wish to take part in. This is due to the effective support provided by staff. Staff support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). They skilfully give them time to explore the environment and activities at their own pace. Children freely access the inviting environment and the resources they require. This promotes their self-resilience and ability to make their own choices.

Staff organise the day to allow lots of opportunities for children to practise taking turns and sharing. This teaches children to respect each other's needs. For example, children wait patiently for others who may need more time to wash their hands, serve their own food or to go outside. They do not rush each other and they help those that need it. Children hold the door open for others when going outside. As a result of this support from staff, children of all ages behave well and play harmoniously together. Staff closely supervise but do not interrupt, as the children explore their own ideas. Children relish the opportunities to build their physical strength and develop their coordination when they play outdoors. They skilfully manoeuvre on balance bikes. Children persevere and succeed in their quest to follow the path around the garden on the bikes with the support of staff.

What Ofsted told them to improve

To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:

- enhance monitoring of staff practice to ensure that teaching is having the best positive impact on children's development n place an even sharper focus on children's next steps in learning to help them make even better progress.

What to ask them

Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date. The rest is in no dataset anywhere. Either way it is worth ten minutes on the phone.

  • What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
  • How do you apply my funded hours? Whether they stretch them over the year, and the minimum days you have to book.
  • Is there a place for my child's age? Baby rooms fill first and waiting lists are common.
  • Who would my child's key person be? And how long have the staff been there. No dataset holds this and it matters more than anything above.
  • Can I visit at a busy time? Mid-morning on a weekday tells you far more than an empty room after hours.
