What Ofsted says it does well
“Staff use children's interests to arrange the learning environment.”
“Staff give children's communication and language development high priority.”
“Children develop a love of books and are provided with plenty of opportunities to enjoy books.”
What Ofsted says it should do better
“improve support to enhance children's focus and attention, while allowing them to explore their own play and learn ideas to the highest levels”
“build on the already good practice and seek further ways to help all staff provide high-quality teaching, to consistently support the play and learning experiences for children.”
