Children behave well."

Key strengths

  • Children understand the rules of the nursery and their behaviour is good.
  • Toddlers are keen to explore different textures, such as dough.

Areas for improvement

  • strengthen support, coaching and training opportunities for staff in the toddler room to raise the quality of teaching to the highest level.
