Ofsted Inspection Summary
Forest Feet Outdoor Nursery was inspected by Ofsted on 5 March 2024 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Leaders and practitioners have created a purposeful outdoor learning space, which is surrounded by an abundance of wild woodland for children to explore, make independent choices, manage their own risk and develop secure relationships. The woodland and garden area are secure. Leaders operate the setting following the forest school and Montessori approach, while ensuring children are provided with experiences that meet the seven areas of learning and development."
