Staff engage in highly meaningful interactions with children. They actively engage in children's imaginative role play, their activities and interests to promote and extend learning in all areas.
- The key-person system is securely in place and staff have excellent knowledge of their children. As a result, they effectively plan for each child's individual needs and abilities.
- Staff actively promote positive behaviour and work in close partnership with parents on promoting positive behaviour strategies. They are good role models for the children and, as a result, children know the boundaries and are exceptionally well behaved.
- There is an extensively wide range of exciting and stimulating resources for children to choose from, although, there are fewer opportunities for children to explore resources that promote positive images of culture and diversity.
- Staff highly value the importance of keeping children safe, and they have a clear understanding of the signs and symptoms of abuse. Staff's knowledge of the safeguarding procedures to follow should they have any concerns about a child's safety or well-being is excellent.
- Staff provide excellent support strategies for children moving to different rooms within the nursery, or from the nursery to school. As a result, children are well-prepared and confident for any move they make.
- Children are happy and confident; they actively engage in all activities and thoroughly enjoy their time at the nursery.
