Strengths
- “Abbey Wood Nursery School is a special place for young children at the heart of its local community.”
- “Children love to play and learn in the well-equipped classrooms and the extensive garden.”
- “The ambitious curriculum offers them many exciting opportunities to develop their learning.”
To improve
- “However, only a small number of children get to share books with an adult during the day.”
- “During regular story times in large groups, many children become distracted and do not maintain interest in the story.”
- “This means that children do not all have the same opportunities to read books with the adults and to develop their love of stories.”
