The Jays Day Care Nursery, Pre-School and Outdoor Learning

Following our OFSTED inspection on 11.5.22 we are happy to say that we received a well-deserved ‘GOOD’ outcome.

OFSTED recognise that ‘children feel happy and secure’ noting that ‘children thrive from close attachments with kind staff’.  They also see that ‘all children make progress’.

OFSTED reported that parents spoke 'highly of the setting' and felt 'informed of their children's progress' and enjoyed looking at the online digital application commenting how this communication 'helps their children to make progress at home'.

A reflection of the work of both parents and staff.

OFSTED also said that although we do a lot of work in helping children develop their independence and  maximise their learning opportunities but felt that we could improve in this area particularly if we wanted to gain an outstanding grade.

Following these recommendations, we are extending opportunities for independence  to children as they arise and are taking up training opportunities for staff to extend their knowledge.

We are very pleased with our report and you can read the full report by clicking on the link here or via the home page.

Thank you to all our Parents and Carers for your support and kind words.

Work won’t stop here, we will be continuing with the good work and aiming to achieve ‘outstanding’ next time.
