St Cuthberts Playgroup was inspected by Ofsted on 25 May 2021 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children are happy and confident learners who seek adults when needed but are also happy to play independently for sustained periods. Children have well-planned resources, with picture cards to help them to understand what they are going to learn and to choose a new activity. Staff speak clearly and simply, reinforcing such concepts as 'your turn' and 'my turn' without cluttering or confusing the messages."
