Quick insights from ofsted Powered by AI
This insight was generated by AI, based on latest Ofsted report.
Diverse Books and Toys: Books have been carefully selected so that all children can see themselves in the stories they read.
Indoor and Outdoor Facilities: The garden is a special place in the school, where children explore the nature around them.
Activities: During ‘bucket time’, children explore interesting objects while adults skilfully develop vocabulary.
Skills , Knowledge and Behavior: However, the small steps of knowledge that children need to know and remember lack precision. Consequently, staff are not clear how to consider precisely children’s next steps. This stalls progress for children.
Communication: Children form warm relationships with staff, particularly their key workers. They seek and receive comfort when they need it. This helps children to settle well and feel secure. Parents value and praise this highly. One parent said, ‘The school is a home from home.’
Community Building: Events are celebrated to promote children’s understanding of the wider world. For example, children enjoyed a Coronation party for the King in their garden.
Staff Training: The school has prioritised support for those children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). The school ensures that these children are fully included.
Programs and Resources: While these improvements are helping children with SEND to keep up, some children experience the same weaknesses in the curriculum as their peers.
Welcoming and Professional Staff: Children form warm relationships with staff, particularly their key workers. They seek and receive comfort when they need it.
Safeguarding Training: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
Diversity Management: The school celebrates different languages and cultures, promoting inclusivity.
Play and Learning Integration: During independent learning, adult interactions are less effective. This is because not all staff have the expertise they need to move learning forward as they do in adult-led activities.
Transition to Primary School: Support for children to build their knowledge over time is prioritized, aiding their transition.
Child Safety Management: The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.
Children's Safety and Security: Children form warm relationships with staff, particularly their key workers. They seek and receive comfort when they need it. This helps children to settle well and feel secure.
Teaching Personal Safety: Children and their families are supported to keep themselves healthy. For example, ‘The Children’s Kitchen’ supports families in their understanding of the types of food that make a healthy lunchbox.
Happiness and Settling: Children form warm relationships with staff, particularly their key workers. They seek and receive comfort when they need it. This helps children to settle well and feel secure. Parents value and praise this highly.
Nutritional Menu: ‘The Children’s Kitchen’ supports families in their understanding of the types of food that make a healthy lunchbox.
