- They confidently access resources and toys independently inside and in the garden.
- Children enjoy arts and crafts, and staff plan a range of experiences that develop this interest and further their learning.
- For example, children enjoy an activity to create a card to celebrate someone in their family.
- While engrossed in their task, children discuss who their cards are for and respond to thoughtful questioning from staff.
- This helps children to understand their differences and similarities, and celebrate their own individuality.
- Overal , children behave wel .
- The speak to staff and each other kindly, take turns and share.
- Children learn about equality and fairness, and they include their friends in their play.
- Staff know children very wel and this helps them plan effectively to support children's progress.
- While there are breaches in requirements, the manager has taken steps to ensure there is no significant impact on children's welfare.
- The manager and staff demonstrate that they have the understanding and capacity to make the improvements required to ensure children's safety and educational requirements are fully met.
- Children make good progress in their social and practical skil s.
- They develop a strong sense of themselves and they learn the skil s they need to move to the next stage, including starting nursery or school.
- What does the early years setting do well and what does it need to do better?n Children have great ideas, which they enthusiastical y share with staff.
- Forexample, children suggest a game of 'musical chairs' which staff help to set up.
- Staff do not shy away from the inevitable result where children get upset at being 'out' of the game.
- Instead, they teach children the rules of the game, how to participate and to manage their emotions.
- This helps children to fully enjoy games even when they do not win.n Parents say that the manager and her team build strong, effective relationshipswith them.
- The manager knows where to refer children for additional support and signpost parents to seek further advice if required.
- However, she has not ensured that the requirement to provide all parents with a written summary of their child's development when they are aged between two and three years is met consistently for all children.
- This means parents cannot share this information with other professionals to support referrals to additional services.n Children love music and dance.
- They ask staff to play music so that they candress up and dance together.
- Children come together to hear stories, and enjoy songs and rhymes with their friends.
- This contributes to a language-rich environment where children hear new words, enjoy rhythm and develop their speaking and listening skil s.
- However, staff do not consistently introduce more mathematical language to boost children's early numeracy.
