Ofsted Inspection Summary

Melrose Nursery was inspected by Ofsted on 6 August 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children form close and loving bonds with staff who know them well and meet their needs and routines with care. Babies cuddle staff with great affection, and older children involve staff in their play in which they laugh and share jokes with them. Children behave very well."

Key strengths

  • Staff help children to become ready for starting school.
  • Staff encourage babies as they babble, verbalising their communications and helping them to learn their first words, such as with songs and stories.
  • Staff ask children questions to encourage them to think and share what they know.
  • Children learn about mathematical concepts.
  • The management team has a very good oversight of the nursery.

Areas for improvement

  • provide quieter children with more time and opportunity to answer questions to develop their communication and thinking even further.
