“Staff and adults in the Early Years Foundation Stage have created an environment that is safe and nurturing. Children respond positively to

adults and interact well with each other.”“Adults engage positively with children during their learning.”

“Leaders are passionate about their work and know children and families well.”“Children respond well to these tasks because adults regularly praise and

encourage them.”

“Parents are also positive about the work of the school in

supporting their children’s well-being.”“One parent commented that the school is,

‘a friendly, caring and happy place which sets the right tone for successful

learning’

and this is a view shared by many of the parents who responded.”
