In their report, inspectors noted: "Although leaders have started to make improvements, they have not taken sufficient action to ensure that children receive a consistently good standard of care and teaching. Weaknesses remain in the planning and delivery of the curriculum. Children do not benefit from enough focus on the prime areas of learning, particularly communication and language, which are essential foundations for all other areas of development."

- Staff have started using guidance materials to help them understand how children develop and how to assess their learning.
- Leaders are establishing a key-person system.
- There are some effective arrangements to help children understand how to keep themselves safe.
Areas for improvement
- embed consistent assessment practice across the setting, so that all children have clearly identified learning goals
- support staff to recognise when children would benefit from more interaction or encouragement to become engaged in their learning.
