Ofsted Inspection Summary
Blundeston Pre-School was inspected by Ofsted on 31 January 2024 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "This is a very happy community pre-school. Staff take time to get to know the families well and use this knowledge to build close and comforting relationships with children. Right from the start, children seek and receive the comfort of a kind word or a warm hug from affectionate staff who are consistently calm, friendly and encouraging."
Key strengths
- Children's physical development is very well supported.
- Staff set out a well-organised environment where children confidently select from the range of stimulating activities on offer.
- Parents and carers speak very highly of the staff and how they provide their children with a happy place where they can play and learn.
- Staff teach children the importance of managing their own self-care, such as being independent in their toileting and handwashing.
- Although staff provide plentiful art and craft supplies, planning focuses too heavily on teaching children to replicate something an adult has produced for…
Areas for improvement
- improve teaching skills further so staff consistently recognise and use opportunities to develop children's independence
- provide more opportunities for children to develop their own artistic expression and to see their independent work celebrated.
