Requires Improvement
Summary
- The provision requires improvement Following a recent safeguarding incident, leaders have put measures in place to ensure that children are safe within the premises.
- They have a robust action plan going forward to ensure that children continue to be wel supervised at all times.
- The quality of interactions between children and staff is variable.
- In the baby room, staff model language wel .
- They constantly narrate what babies are doing as they play and they sing to the babies throughout the day.
- This helps babies to make progress in their language development.
- However, too often, staff leave older children to play with limited interaction from themselves.
- This means that the progress that children make in their communication and language is variable.
- Most staff clearly explain the behaviour expectations to children and praise them warmly when they achieve these.
- At these times, children behave wel .
- Children take pride in their achievements and respond to the praise they receive with big smiles.
- Children develop their self-care skil s wel .
- Staff support children to carry out responsibilities themselves.
- For example, children help staff to go and col ect their snack from the kitchen.
- They serve themselves and clear away their plates after they have eaten.
- Children learn to use a knife and fork wel .
- This builds children's self-esteem and helps them to learn life skil s.
- What does the early years setting do well and what does it need to do better?n Staff have access to a wide range of professional development opportunitieswithin the local authority.
- They also receive regular supervisions.
- Leaders have identified staff who need support to develop their practice and have begun to put this support in place.
- However, this has not yet led to sufficient improvement in practice, which means teaching is stil variable.n Some staff have a good understanding of what their key children know and needto know next.
- They support children to achieve these next steps as they play.
- For example, where children need more support to develop their gross motor skil s, staff careful y plan targeted interventions to help these children.
- They then communicate these to parents so that they can also practise in the same way with their child at home.
- This leads to these children achieving their targets.
- However, other staff do not understand what their key children can do and what they need to learn next.
- They are therefore unable to plan for them to achieve the next steps in their learning journey.
- In these situations, children make slower progress.n Leaders work very hard to support children with special educational needsand/or disabilities.
- This is a real strength of the setting.
