Requires Improvement
Summary
- The provision requires improvement Children are supervised appropriately to keep them safe from harm.
- However, deployment of staff is not always effective.
- While the minimum adult-to-child ratios are met, there are sometimes not enough staff working directly with the younger children.
- This leads to periods when staff merely supervise these children as they are unable to offer quality interactions to fully support learning.
- During these times, children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) also do not receive good levels of engagement and support.
- This results in children receiving varied learning experiences.
- When there are enough staff working with each age group, children are engaged and challenged by staff more effectively.
- Staff provide appropriate levels of care as they offer cuddles and reassurance when needed.
- Staff focus on supporting children's social skil s as wel as their communication and language skil s.
- This is because they recognise how COVID-19 has had an impact on children's learning in these areas.
- Most children arrive confidently at the nursery.
- They excitedly come in and are keen to share their news with staff.
- All children enjoy daily opportunities to play outside.
- They have fun exploring in the enclosed forest play area.
- Older children are supported to share, take turns and use their imagination as they make dens and fairy houses out of sticks.
- Staff skilfully use opportunities as they arise to support children's mathematical awareness.
- For example, when children find a range of sticks, staff encourage them to identify the different size of each stick.
- What does the early years setting do well and what does it need to do better?n The manager and staff understand what they want children to learn as theysupport each child to build on their prior knowledge and skil s.
- However, when there are not enough staff working directly with younger children, staff are unable to implement their curriculum effectively.
- Therefore, while children enjoy playing with the activities set out, quality interactions and communication with the children reduce.n Staff are aware of children's individual needs.
- The manager is working with staffto review and update individual targets for children with SEND.
- Outside agency support is being requested, where needed, for individual children.
- However, staff do not consistently implement the specific targets set for each child with SEND.
- This does not help to close the gaps identified in children's learning quickly enough.n The recently recruited manager has a clear vision for the nursery.
- She is a skil edpractitioner who role models good practice.
- The manager is working closely with senior leaders and the staff team to identify areas for improvement.
- A key priority is the recruitment of additional staff so that she can ensure deployment of staff remains consistently effective.
