- Leaders make good use of government funding they receive to promote children's development and to help them gain the essentials skills needed for later learning.
- It is not yet outstanding because:Occasionally, staff do not always use daily activities to challenge older children in order to help them find their own ways to represent and develop their ideas.
- Leaders do not always make the best use of monitoring systems to help them improve the good standards of teaching even further, particularly to identify ways to help older children make more rapid progress.
