Ofsted Inspection Summary

Walton Nursery was inspected by Ofsted on 10 February 2023 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children follow an exciting and ambitious curriculum that offers them a wide range of enjoyable experiences. For example, children take part in ballet and tennis classes and enjoy weekly cooking sessions. They grow fruits and vegetables from seed in the extensive grounds of the nursery."

Key strengths

  • Older children explore the outdoor environment with a sense of freedom and excitement, and this is when some of their most productive learning takes place.
  • Overall, staff know children well and support their learning effectively.
  • Staff provide a programme for supporting children's early reading skills.
  • Staff do not always give children opportunities to lead their own learning and sometimes move them quickly from one activity to another.
  • Staff value children's individuality and what makes them unique and special.

Areas for improvement

  • gather more information from parents and professionals to tailor care and support for children's needs from the outset
  • provide children with consistent opportunities to lead their play and become immersed in the exciting curriculum activities on offer
  • expand on staff's professional development so they have wider opportunities to enhance their personal knowledge and more confidently deliver the curriculum.
