What it is like to attend
Children enjoy coming to this warm and inviting setting. They play happily with their friends and demonstrate that they feel safe, as they quickly engage in activities. There is a large range of age-appropriate resources both indoors and outside, which build on children's developing skills. For example, pre-school children play outdoors with a large parachute. They learn to work together to move the parachute up and down. Developing their physical skills as they do so. Indoors, babies play with an array of balls. They use their fine and gross motor skills to hold them and roll them across the floor. Children behave well and staff support them to understand the rules and boundaries of the setting. For example, as pre-school children sit to have a story, staff remind them of 'good listening' and 'good sitting'.
Staff remind younger children to share toys and to be kind to each other.
Children learn about their local community through meaningful experiences. For example, staff and children celebrate Eid. They dress in traditional clothing and parents bring in traditional food for the children to try. Children also learn about a range of festivals throughout the year. For instance, they are learning about the coronation of the new King. This helps children to learn about Britain and helps them understand the wider world they live in.
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- strengthen activity planning by focusing precisely on the skills and knowledge children will gain from activities and how this will build on prior learning and support their good progress n enhance children's learning of mathematical concepts and the context of numbers.

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Some of this is above, from the setting or from parents, and it can go out of date.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.
- Do you have a place for a child of my age now? 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.
