What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 14 May 2024

Children thrive in this exceptional school. They enter their classrooms with broad smiles. Children, including those in the two-year-old provision, settle quickly. They are taught how to be gentle and to respect others. Children are happy. They form trusting bonds with staff. This helps children feel cared for and secure. The school has extremely high expectations for children's learning. This includes children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Children achieve remarkably well. They move on to primary schools extremely well-prepared for the next stage of their learning. Children are supported to be well behaved. They are skilfully shown how to share and take turns. Children relish the praise and rewards that they receive for following the school rules. Children take part in learning activities, such as mixing paint and modelling clay, with confidence. They engage in creative activities, including music, cooking and woodwork, with gusto. They trust that attentive staff will help and support them. Children learn to care for living things, such as chickens, tadpoles and a therapy dog. They benefit from educational trips and visits, for example visiting a ship, a recycling centre and watching theatre performances. Children also enjoy exploring the extensive outdoor areas. This helps them to learn more about the wider world and nurtures their imaginations.
