years curriculum which promotes progression in the children's learning and development both indoors and outdoors. We promote awareness of Children's early learning through workshops for parents/carers. Parents/carers have an opportunity to be involved in their children's learning by serving on the management committee and fund raising activities. Improved learning outcomes are evidenced through regular recorded observations on the children which show progression in the children's learning and development and also identifies areas where a child may need additional support. Support for individual children is sought through working in partnership with parents and a range of outside professionals. Individuals Learning Plans are drawn up to support children with additional needs.

We have a excellent report through our annual inspection from the Trust and we have most recently received an outstanding grade following our Education and Training Inspectorate Inspection.
