Strengths
- “Every child coming to this nursery school is instantly made to feel welcome.”
- “They quickly settle and become a valued member of their class.”
- “Adults are very attentive to children’s needs.”
To improve
- “However, some of this curriculum development and training is still ongoing, for example in understanding the world and expressive art and design.”
- “As a result, not all staff know the precise knowledge children need to learn at each stage in these areas.”
- “However, adult interactions with children are not always sufficiently precise, particularly in the areas of the curriculum that are less developed.”
