"The quality of teaching and learning is good. Staff's good knowledge of the Foundation Stage ensures that children progress well in all areas of development. Children are interested and motivated to learn using well planned activities and experiences which challenge and extend them."
"Children's behaviour is good and reflects staff's high expectations."
"Partnership with parents and carers is good. Staff keep parents well informed about what the children are doing and use topics to help parents build on pre-school activities at home. They are particularly well informed of their child's progress in their very well presented individual books."
