Strengths

- “Right from the start of the day, children are keen to come in and get started on their learning.”
- “They feel very happy and safe in their nursery environment.”
To improve
- “In some parts of numeracy and expressive art and design, teaching sometimes does not focus on the core skills needed in these areas as well.”
- “However, there is a lack of opportunities for children to help them develop an understanding of the world around them.”
- “Leaders intend to map this out, but this is not currently in place.”
