Strengths
- “Gloucester Nursery School is a special place.”
- “Its glowing, long-standing reputation in the local community is well deserved.”
- “Parents and carers cannot speak highly enough of the school’s nurturing ethos.”
To improve
- “However, in some areas of the curriculum, the school has not identified important words and phrases that children need to learn.”
- “This leaves some members of staff uncertain about what words they need to teach and revisit when they are working with children and supporting their play.”
- “Therefore, some children do not develop their communication and language skills as well as they could.”
