Ofsted Inspection Summary

Pennies Day Nursery Ltd was inspected by Ofsted on 1 December 2021 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children fully engage in an exciting range of activities and learning experiences. For instance, younger children explore paint textures and colours, and older children investigate fruit teabags, thinking about different smells and strengths of colour. They smile and interact with staff and each other, showing they feel safe and beam with pride when they are celebrated for their achievements."

Key strengths

  • Staff support children to develop good communication skills.
  • Those children who have identified gaps in their communication and language development receive targeted support.
  • Staff liaise closely with external agencies to support children's well-being and development.
  • Partnerships with parents are strong.
  • There is an established key-person system in place, which works effectively for older children to support them in making close bonds and promoting independence.

Areas for improvement

  • strengthen the key-person system when new and young children first start to attend, to enable them to develop even stronger bonds from the outset.
