Childrens House Nursery School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 4 May 2023

Children's faces light up as they come through the gates. The school is full of the sounds of children's wonder and delight. Parents and carers describe the school as the heart of the community. Staff know the children and their families well. They know how to get the best from the children that they work with. Leaders are highly ambitious for what all children can learn and do. All activities for children to do have a clear learning purpose. For example, all children learn to ride on balance bikes. This aids their physical development. They also learn about bike maintenance and safety. They learn how to check tyre pressure and how to fit a helmet correctly. Leaders want children to extend their learning outside school. They organise regular educational outings with children and their families to local parks and museums. Children go to the theatre and work with local artists. They explore the natural world, learning about the ecosystems in the school garden. Staff here foster a sense of curiosity in children and encourage them to question what they see. Staff use their interactions with children to support language and communication development. Children in the additional provision learn and play together with their peers.
