Ofsted Inspection Summary
Willow Nursery And Pre-School was inspected by Ofsted on 15 February 2023 and received an overall rating of Good. In their report, inspectors noted: "Children build secure relationships with staff, coming to them for cuddles and reassurance throughout the day. Children seek out staff and initiate play. For example, they say 'chase me' as they run across the grass and ask staff to join them to play hide and seek."
Key strengths
- Staff develop children's learning of mathematics by encouraging them to count and talking with them about size and shape.
- Children behave well.
- At times, the planning of routines, such as when new children are settling into the nursery, does not support children as well as it could.
- Older children respond promptly to requests, such as to tidy away.
- Occasionally, activities are too advanced for the older children, resulting in them being reluctant to join in or to 'have a go'.
Areas for improvement
- ensure that all activities are age-appropriate for older children and build on their previous knowledge
- ensure that routines are planned so that they fully support younger children, especially those that are new to the setting.
