Ogley Hay Nursery School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 5 January 2023

Ogley Hay Nursery School is 'one big happy family.' Leaders prioritise working in partnership with children and their families. The school motto 'together we learn more' is at the heart of everything this school does. Staff greet children and their families warmly each day. Children are very happy and safe. They settle well and thrive socially. Parents are very positive about leaders and staff. Leaders are highly ambitious for all children. They make sure that children are very well prepared for the next stage in their education. The calm, orderly environment enables children to focus on their learning. Adults read to children regularly. A wide range of enriching experiences makes learning fun. For example, children enjoy watching chicks hatch from eggs in the nursery. They explore working with clay with an artist. Children broaden their horizons through trips and visits to the farm and theatre. Children's behaviour is exemplary. Leaders set clear boundaries and have high expectations of how children will behave. Highly effective support from staff helps children to know what is expected of them throughout the day. Children are polite and kind to each other. Incidents of poor behaviour or bullying are very rare. Leaders deal with any issues swiftly and effectively when they occur.
