What does this mean?
This grade is from before November 2025, when Ofsted replaced single grades with report cards. The nursery's next inspection will give a report card, with a separate grade for each area instead of one overall grade.
What Ofsted says it does well
“The curriculum reflects a clear understanding of child development and responds dynamically to the children's evolving interests.”
“Children make choices about what they want to learn, and they develop good social skills.”
“Children have daily access to the outdoors, which plays a big part at the setting.”
What Ofsted says it should do better
“help staff to strengthen their support for children's language skills by encouraging children to use new words as they play.”
