Ofsted Inspection Summary

Sleaford New Life Preschool was inspected by Ofsted on 18 June 2025 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children are encouraged by staff to have a positive attitude to learning, especially when they tell staff that they cannot do something. For example, when children tell staff that they cannot use a spade to scoop and pour sand to help develop their hand-eye coordination, staff suggest that they have a turn first and then pass the spade to children. This encourages children to do this independently and no longer need support from staff."

Key strengths

  • Staff reflect on the experiences they offer children and make improvements to increase the experiences that children and families receive.
  • The curriculum staff implement helps children to build on their knowledge of how they can keep themselves safe.
  • Staff are skilful at supporting children to follow their interests.
  • Staff plan daily activities to support children's learning.
  • Staff know their key children well and what they need to learn next.

Areas for improvement

  • support staff to adapt the planning and implementation of some activities to meet the different abilities and learning needs of all children who take part
  • develop ways to support all staff to identify and build on children's individual learning needs when they play alongside them.
