Cherry Trees Nursery School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 26 November 2024

Children make a fantastic start to their education at Cherry Trees Nursery School. They learn and play happily in the school's stimulating environments. The school community is diverse. Between them, children, parents and carers, and staff speak many languages in addition to English. The school celebrates this diversity and weaves it into its rich curriculum. Children behave extremely well. They arrive promptly and settle quickly each day, keen to explore the enticing activities staff have set up for them. Strong routines and a highly consistent approach from staff underpin this. Relationships throughout the school are warm and caring. Children are kind and friendly. They share resources, take turns, and listen well to adults' instructions. At tidy-up time, for example, children enthusiastically sweep up the leaves and sand outside or help put away their toys and games inside. The school is ambitious for children to achieve well, regardless of their starting points. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), and those in the early stages of language acquisition, are very well supported. Children rise to the school's high expectations. They are extremely well prepared for moving on to their next school by the time they leave Cherry Trees.
