Our official grading following our full OFSTED inspection on 22 Sept has now been received. We are delighted to have been graded GOOD under the new robust OFSTED early years inspection criteria which came into effect from 1 Sept.
The Inspector was clearly impressed. Here are just a few comments from her report..
"Babies and children thrive in the warm, welcoming environment. Key persons form close bonds with children, helping them to develop confidence and a strong sense of security"
" Staff are good role models of behaviour and talk to children with respect and kindness."
"Management have high expectations of staff and children and have implemented effective plans to drive improvement in teaching and learning".
"Teaching is good. Babies and children make good progress from their starting points".
"Children benefit from healthy snacks and meals which promote their physical health and well-being from an early age".
"Staff are well qualified, which has a positive impact on children's outcomes".
Parents, copies of the full report are available from the staff room for you and a copy is on our Parent Information Board.
Congratulations to my great team. I am so pleased the Inspector saw and identified the great work and care you give to our children.
Well done and thoroughly deserved.
