What it is like to attend
All children make good progress. Staff know the children well and plan appropriate and challenging activities. Children's progress is well monitored and therefore they achieve to the best of their ability. They benefit from learning across all areas of the early years foundation stage. During activities, staff weave in additional learning. For example, during a group activity, staff encourage children to count how many are sitting on the mat. This provides children with new skills and develops their mathematical language.
Children are kind to each other. They demonstrate the skills they need for their next stage of learning. For example, children kindly help their younger peers with tasks. They demonstrate their independence with dressing, eating and self-care routines. Children wait for their turn and listen to peers, showing respect for each other. They listen carefully and follow instructions well. Children are excited to learn new skills. They concentrate well and are engaged in activities of their choosing.
Children independently discuss similarities and differences between them. For example, when building with the blocks, children talk about different religious buildings and who visits them. Children demonstrate their acceptance of each other's similarities and differences. This helps to prepare them for life in modern
What Ofsted told them to improve
To further improve the quality of the early years provision, the provider should:
- develop children's understanding of healthy eating, and help them to understand the importance of keeping fit and well.

What to ask them
None of this is in any national dataset and this setting has not published it, which is exactly why it is worth asking.
- What does it cost, all in? What is on top: meals, nappies, late pick-up, and what happens if you are late.
- Can I use my funded hours here? 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.
