Ofsted Inspection Summary

Kids 1St Qe was inspected by Ofsted on 25 May 2021 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children are very happy and settled in the nursery and the key-person system works really well. Some babies born during the lockdown period have had limited contact with people outside of their family. Staff are very aware of this, and are sensitive to babies' needs."

Key strengths

  • Care practices are, generally, very good.
  • Children's behaviour and attitudes are a key strength of the setting.
  • Children have a very positive attitude to learning and engage in problem-solving activities.
  • Children have good access to books both indoors and outdoors and incorporate stories into their general play.
  • Pre-school children also learn a word of the week and discuss the word in context.

Areas for improvement

  • monitor the effectiveness of mealtime routines to ensure that children do not wait too long for food, and have sufficient time to finish eating
  • evaluate children's large physical development in the outdoor play areas, to support the next steps in their learning.
