Ofsted Inspection Summary

The New Mulberry Bush was inspected by Ofsted on 8 July 2021 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Parents are not able to come into the nursery to stay and play because of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic. They leave their children with a member of staff at the main entrance. Children arrive happily and receive a warm, friendly greeting from the caring staff."

Key strengths

  • Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities receive tailored support to help them to make progress.
  • Staff support children to develop their small- and large-muscle skills and the control needed in preparation for writing.
  • The manager and staff fully consider the needs of children when making improvements.
  • Overall, staff skilfully support children to form words and sentences.
  • Parents speak highly of the nursery and are aware of the progress their children are making.

Areas for improvement

  • build on staff's questioning techniques so that they consistently ask questions that encourage children to think of their own responses and express their own…
  • improve staff's understanding of wider safeguarding issues, such as breast ironing, so that they know what signs and symptoms they need to be aware of.
