Summary
- The provision is inadequate Staff do not provide children with clear boundaries or expectations for their behaviour.
- They do not manage disruptive behaviour and they fail to support children to develop an understanding of right from wrong.
- This leads to a disorderly environment that hinders children's learning.
- Children are frequently in conflict with one another.
- The less confident children become distressed, showing that they do not feel safe and secure in the nursery.
- Children do not benefit from a wel -planned and sequenced curriculum.
- Staff do not take good enough account of children's individual abilities or what they need to learn next.
- This means that children are not challenged and do not make as much progress as they could.
- That said, staff know what children are interested in, and some activities are really appealing to children.
- Older children make 'volcanoes' from household ingredients.
- They watch in awe as the mixture fizzes and bubbles.
- Younger children make currant buns with dough, singing along while they play.
- Babies enjoy splashing in the water trays.
- Risk assessments are not sufficiently effective.
- Although accidents are recorded, actions are not taken promptly afterwards.
- For example, children are able to open internal doors, despite children having previously trapped their fingers in them.
- This compromises children's safety.
- Furthermore, some routines and activities do not support children's good health.
- Babies share resources that have been in their mouths.
- Staff do not model good hygiene routines to teach children good habits and minimise the risk of cross infection.
- What does the early years setting do well and what does it need to do better?n The provider has failed to inform Ofsted about an allegation made against amember of staff.
- This is a breach of the early years foundation stage statutory requirements.
- However, the manager did report this allegation to other authorities and it was investigated appropriately.n Staff do not implement effective strategies to manage children's behaviour.
- Forexample, children observed pushing, shouting and fighting with one other are told to 'be nice'.
- When this behaviour results in a child getting hurt, staff do not talk to children about the consequences of their actions.
- This means children do not learn about the impact their behaviour has on others.n Routines are, at times, chaotic.
- For example, children push past one anotherwhen staff escort them to the outdoor area.
- At lunchtime, they bang their empty plates on the table and become unsettled.
- Once the food arrives, they wait too long for cutlery and so begin to eat their food with their hands.n Staff encourage children to be independent and clean their own hands andfaces.
- However, they do not teach them to dispose of tissues safely and clean
