Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good Since the last inspection, the team has worked well to address areas for improvements.

Overall, the manager monitors children's progress to identify where extra support may be required. She identifies additional, targeted support to help close any gaps in children's learning, in preparation for their next stage of learning and for school. Staff successfully complete the progress check for children aged two years.

This is shared with parents and is used to identify any areas where children's progress is less than expected and develop plans to address any concerns. Partnerships with parents are well established. Communication is good and helps to ens...ure that each child's care and learning needs are well met.

Children's emotional security is given high priority by staff. For example, staff initially address this with a gradual settling-in period that is agreed with parents and tailored to meet their child's needs. The environment is welcoming, well organised, secure and safe.

It is not yet outstanding because: At times, particularly during adult-led learning, there are missed opportunities for children to try and have a go, before staff step in to offer support. Staff do not make the most of opportunities to encourage boys to engage in the writing or creative activities made available to them. Recent changes to develop systems for tracking children's progress are not yet fully embedded, to help raise the quality of teaching even further.
