A NURSERY has been described as ‘awe-inspiring and stimulating’ by inspectors.
Busy Bees Rugby has been rated ‘Outstanding’ in all areas by Ofsted following an inspection in April.
Inspectors said children ‘flourish’ and are ‘excited to attend’, forming strong bonds with friends and staff and feeling ‘safe, secure and confident’.
Natalie Hall, the centre director of the Rodney Close nursery, said: “We are very excited to have secured an ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted report. Every member of our team is committed to delivering the highest quality of early years care and education, to ensure we give every child the very best start in life.”
The nursery was praised for preparing children to start school and providing ‘outstanding’ communication and language development, with a ‘love for reading’ embedded throughout the nursery.
Inspectors also said a strong settling-in process ‘supports children to settle and progress’ as they move rooms through the nursery, with ‘abundant opportunities’ for children to develop their independence.
They also commended the nursery’s ‘ambitious’ curriculum, support for children with Special Educational Needs (SEND), ‘exemplary’ child behaviour, and resources which help children develop physical skills ‘exceptionally well’.
The partnership with parents was described as ‘outstanding’, with families welcomed into nursery at regular intervals to discuss their child’s progress.
And parents told inspectors that ‘passionate’ staff go ‘above and beyond’ to support children and that the nursery is ‘extremely inclusive’.
