Ofsted Inspection Summary

Claremont House Nursery School was inspected by Ofsted on 30 July 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children benefit from the nurturing and positive relationships that staff build with them. From a young age, children seek comfort and support from staff, which builds their confidence to join in activities and make progress in their learning. Children's next steps in learning, including for those with special educational needs and/or disabilities, are well planned for, as staff make accurate ongoing assessments of children's development."

Key strengths

  • Staff recognise and praise children's positive behaviours.
  • Staff are kind and considerate of each child's emotional needs and respond promptly when they notice children are not themselves.
  • Staff are attentive to children's individual care needs and have positive care routines in place.
  • Staff support children's physical development well.
  • Generally, staff support children's communication and language well.

Areas for improvement

  • strengthen the consistency of how staff develop children's communication, to extend children's language beyond what they already know or can say
  • develop coaching and support for staff to strengthen their interactions, to ensure all children benefit from consistently high quality teaching.
