Ofsted Inspection Summary
Chipmunks Day Nursery was inspected by Ofsted on 24 September 2025 and received an overall rating of Requires improvement. In their report, inspectors noted: "The provision requires improvement Leaders have addressed some of the weaknesses from the last inspection and are committed to making further improvements. For instance, there is now a broad curriculum that is aimed at improving outcomes for all children. However, although children appear settled and happy to attend, they do not benefit from consistent high-quality interactions from staff to extend their learning."
Key strengths
- Staff assess and monitor children's progress regularly.
- Staff feel their well-being is considered and supported by leaders.
- While staff plan motivating activities for children, they do not consistently consider the organisation of these activities.
- There is an effective key-person system in place.
