Ofsted Inspection Summary
Stepping Stones Pre-School was inspected by Ofsted on 29 September 2022 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children move freely between the indoors and the garden throughout the pre- school session. This helps to give them the confidence to choose where they wish to play and to follow their own interests. Children explore outside and excitedly tell an adult that they have found an item on a checklist."
