Ofsted Inspection Summary

Cantelupe Pre-School Playgroup was inspected by Ofsted on 6 July 2022 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children arrive at the setting and quickly choose what they want to play with from the various activities on offer. They part from their parents easily as they have secure attachments with the kind and caring staff. Children soon become fully engaged in their play."

Key strengths

  • There is a range of varied and exciting play experiences available to children.
  • Staff promote children's language as they play.
  • Children are supported to develop a love of books.
  • Partnerships with parents are good.
  • Children's physical health is promoted well through nutritious snacks and regular fresh air and exercise, to expand the experiences children have at home.

Areas for improvement

  • improve staff skills in how to implement the curriculum to ensure all children are supported to learn as much as they can
  • review the organisation of larger group activities for the older children, to ensure that all children remain fully engaged and interested in their learning.
