Strengths
- “Children thrive at Freshfield Nursery School.”
- “They arrive at school each day happy and excited to see their friends.”
- “They receive a warm welcome from staff, who know them well.”
To improve
- “However, in some areas of the curriculum, including the provision for two-year-old children, the school has not clearly defined the small steps of learning over time.”
- “This means that in these areas, some children do not learn all that they should.”
- “However, in some areas of the curriculum, staff do not provide enough opportunity for high-quality back-and-forth interactions to help children to talk about their learning.”
