Ofsted Inspection Summary

St Gabriel'S Playgroup was inspected by Ofsted on 1 October 2024 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children are happy and settled at the playgroup. Staff welcome children and allow them the time they need to settle in and say 'goodbye' to their parents and carers. This helps children to feel safe and secure."

Key strengths

  • There have been some recent staff changes, and newly recruited staff meet with the manager regularly to check they are settling in and understand the policies…
  • Staff understand the children's needs and how to support their individual learning styles.
  • Children's behaviour is well supported.
  • Children's independence is promoted well.
  • Support for children's communication and language development has greatly improved.

Areas for improvement

  • clarify the roles and responsibilities of those with oversight of the playgroup
  • support staff to monitor and assess children's progress more effectively to be able to plan activities that help them to make the best possible progress.
