Ofsted Inspection Summary

Happy Hedgehogs Pre-School was inspected by Ofsted on 11 March 2022 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children arrive at pre-school happy and eager to enter. They are dropped off and collected from friendly staff at the door or gate to their pre-school room. Children respond well to this."

Key strengths

  • Leaders have identified gaps in some children's learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Staff support children to understand when there is a change in the routine, for example at tidy-up time.
  • Staff support children to share and take turns with the use of sand timers.
  • Children make choices in their play.
  • Children learn some of the different ways to live healthy lifestyles.

Areas for improvement

  • provide children with greater opportunities to develop their listening skills and promote more quality interactions between children and staff
  • enable children to follow rules and routines more independently so they learn to take responsibility for themselves and their environment
  • adapt the curriculum to help children better understand their feelings and those of others, to regulate their own behaviour and manage conflicts.
