Ofsted Inspection Summary

Brightside Preschool was inspected by Ofsted on 25 February 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children receive a warm welcome from staff as they arrive and show that they are eager to attend. Staff gather a wealth of information from parents about children's care needs and prior learning during bespoke settling-in sessions. They use this information well to plan a meaningful child-focused curriculum."

Key strengths

  • Staff encourage children to become confident to make choices about what to play with and carry out some responsibilities.
  • Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities make good progress from their starting points.
  • Staff promote children's healthy lifestyles well.
  • Older children are beginning to understand how they are feeling and why through discussions with staff.
  • Staff implement a varied and sequenced curriculum that enables children to be in control of their own learning through their individual interests.

Areas for improvement

  • strengthen opportunities for children to further develop their independence and do things for themselves
  • support children to gain a better understanding of the impact their behaviour may have on others.
