Strengths
- “Oxhill Nursery School is a wonderful place for children to begin their journey of education.”
- “They take time to get to know the children in their care and use this knowledge to make learning meaningful and fun.”
- “The school is very ambitious for the children.”
To improve
- “However, systems to check children’s learning are at an early stage of development.”
- “This means that the impact of the new curriculum on children’s learning is not clear.”
- “While children do enjoy activities linked to some religious festivals, such as Holi, they do not have sufficient opportunities to learn about the diversity of the wider world.”
