What it is like to attend
Children have a happy, busy time at nursery. They demonstrate that they feel safe in the care of the kind and encouraging staff. Children of all ages like looking at books and listening to stories. Toddlers take great delight in repeating the words
'dinosaur poo' when they find pictures of it in the engaging book they have chosen.
Pre-school children exercise democracy when they vote for the story that they want to hear at the end of the morning. This helps them to learn a fair way to make group decisions. Children learn that stories have a beginning, a middle and an end.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- focus improvement planning more clearly, so that staff know precisely what they are aiming to achieve, and the impact on the quality of children's education is measured.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- Is £64.50 a day still the rate? 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.
