QUOTES FROM OFSTED REPORT 2019

“ Parents speak highly of the specialist support they receive from the setting. They feel practitioners go the extra mile for their children's needs and also support them as parents”

 “Children's behaviour shows they feel safe and secure in the setting. They have strong attachments with their key person which supports their developing confidence.”

 “The manager has high expectations for the setting. She is passionate about developing her team and she arranges for them to attend regular professional development training courses. This has impacted the quality of the practitioners' teaching, which has led to better outcomes for children.”
