Bretonside Nursery

Ofsted Report

We were rated ‘Good’ in our latest Ofsted inspection

Some of the comments made about our nursery and the childcare we provide that we are particularly proud of include:

• Managers and staff strive to ensure that all children reach their full potential. They use funding to enable children to engage in extra-curricular activities. For instance, they choose from a range of experiences, such as cooking and forest school. Additionally, the nursery provides all children with a hot, nutritious meal to benefit their overall health.
• The nursery strongly advocates its passion around sustainability. Staff help children to learn about protecting the environment. Children play with ecofriendly resources, such as natural materials and recycled powder paint. They use bamboo toothbrushes when taking care of their oral health. The nursery also works closely with nearby supermarkets to help reduce food waste. Staff distribute these to parents and members of the community.
• Staff know children exceptionally well. They plan exciting experiences around children’s interests and the types of play they enjoy. For instance, staff provide children with a range of rotating toys and balls that capture their curiosity. Children investigate how these move, hear and feel to promote their sensory experiences.
