Ofsted Inspection Summary

The Bees Knees Preschool was inspected by Ofsted on 1 February 2024 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children enter the setting keen and eager to learn and settle well into the familiar routines. They are motivated, independent learners who persevere well on tasks and relish a challenge. Staff provide good levels of support and generally encourage children's communication and language well by asking well-timed questions and getting children to talk about what they are doing."

Key strengths

  • Staff engage in lots of dialogue with children and introduce them to new words and their meaning.
  • Children are physically very able and enjoy a challenge.
  • Children enjoy sensory activities and enjoy exploring the different textures of a range of materials.
  • Staff support children to gain an understanding of other's feelings and how their behaviour impacts on others.
  • Partnerships with parents are very effective, and this collaborative approach helps to build on children's knowledge and skills.

Areas for improvement

  • build on the opportunities for children to learn more about information and communication technology
  • ensure practice is consistent when supporting children's communication and language, particularly when introducing children to letter sounds.
