Ofsted Inspection Summary

The Woodland Pre-School (Downley) was inspected by Ofsted on 17 March 2022 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children choose to spend time outside, where they make independent choices from the activities and equipment on offer. They delight in making cakes and potions in the mud kitchen. Children explore textures and watch what happens next as they mix mud, bark and leaves."

Key strengths

  • Staff know the children well.
  • Children make good progress in their learning.
  • Overall, staff support children's communication and language skills well.
  • Children share their thoughts and ideas with staff during free play.
  • Staff weave number and mathematics into everyday routines.

Areas for improvement

  • develop staff practice further to ensure they model how to pronounce sounds correctly when teaching phonics, to better support children's early literacy skills
  • give all children the opportunity to express their own thoughts and ideas during group times, to enhance their thinking skills
  • review the organisation of daily routines to avoid interruptions to children's play and learning, particularly when they are outside or undertaking free play.
