Ofsted Good, October 2018

In the words of our Ofsted Inspector;

“Staff are kind and encouraging. They help children to grow in confidence and feel valued. Children form strong attachments with staff. They relish the opportunities to learn and socialise in mixed-age groups.”

“All children are challenged, motivated to learn, and make good progress in their development. They are acquiring skills for future learning. They have good independence skills and listen well. They are developing good early literacy and mathematical skills in readiness for school.”
