Ofsted Inspection Summary

Sconce Hills Pre-School Playgroup was inspected by Ofsted on 24 April 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children receive a warm welcome from the staff team when they arrive at the playgroup. Staff know the children well and provide a range of activities that allow them to follow their interests. For example, staff know children like to play with cars so they support them to roll cars down ramps and measure how far they travel."

Key strengths

  • Staff use additional funding effectively to meet children's individual needs.
  • Overall, staff observe and assess children's learning well.
  • Staff invite outside agencies into the playgroup to help broaden children's experiences.
  • Staff offer children a range of exciting and interesting activities that they are keen to play with.
  • Staff are supported to build on their professional development.

Areas for improvement

  • gain further information about children's interests and what they already know and can do before they start attending to help plan for their care and learning…
  • develop how staff use their interactions with children to help maintain children's focus and attention during their self-chosen play.
