What Ofsted said
From the inspection on 21 September 2023
Children flourish at Bayonne Nursery School. Even the very youngest children settle quickly because they feel happy and safe. A parent summed up the views of many when he said that his child 'wakes up every morning excited to go in'. Children receive an exceptional curriculum offer. Staff know children very well and make sure that all children achieve highly. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are extremely well supported. They learn happily alongside their peers. Staff use every opportunity to develop children's speech, language and communication by engaging them in quality talk. The Nursery is a lovely place to learn. It is organised, ordered and engaging. Staff provide purposeful learning experiences for children. They also utilise children's interests and any special moments. For example, a sudden downpour of rain provided an exciting opportunity for children to catch the rainfall in different containers and measure their capacity. Children are impeccably behaved and engrossed in their learning. Parents are delighted with all the nursery provides, including the extra activities on offer such as Wiggle Waggle, football and yoga. Many praised how staff enable their child to thrive. They also value the expert advice staff provide, such as how to potty train.
