Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good Staff support for children's personal and emotional development is effective. The youngest children feel emotionally secure and have warm and close bonds with their key person. Older children demonstrate high levels of confidence and self-esteem, and make secure relationships with staff and other children.

The staff team has made significant improvements since the last inspection.

Children who learn best outside do not have extensive opportunities to explore all areas of learning.
