Ofsted Inspection Summary

The Grange Nursery was inspected by Ofsted on 18 June 2024 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children are generally very happy and settled. They enter excitedly and are eager to start playing and learning. Staff show warmth and affection towards the children, many of whom have been attending since they were babies."

Key strengths

  • Staff gather a variety of information about new children, such as through an 'all- about-me' document.
  • Staff link many activities to help children to remember what they want them to learn.
  • Staff's enthusiasm enhances children's fun, enjoyment and engagement.
  • Children develop their physical skills in many ways.
  • Staff promote children's good health and understanding of healthy lifestyles exceptionally well.

Areas for improvement

  • extend the information that is shared with parents to help children to make even better progress.
