What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 13 December 2023
Abbey Green Nursery School provides an exceptional level of care for its children and their families. Children thrive in this warm and nurturing nursery school. They are happy and safe. There are exceptionally positive relationships between staff and children. Parents are overwhelmingly positive about the education that their children receive. They too feel valued and part of the community that leaders have created. Leaders are highly ambitious for all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Children learn in an environment that is inclusive and designed to meet their individual needs in full. Staff carefully consider children's precise next steps in their learning. They skilfully ensure that children achieve these. Strong routines are in place. Children know, and follow, these well. They are respectful of the school's high expectations. Children learn and play together harmoniously. They learn to share and take turns. Children take very good care of the equipment and toys that they use. The school promotes high levels of independence. Children make their own choices about the activities they would like to engage in and the resources they would like to use. They become absorbed in their learning, whether this be by themselves, with other children, or with a guiding adult supporting them.
