What This School Does Well
Pound Park Nursery creates a safe, happy learning environment where children become confident and curious learners. All children make excellent progress, with staff skilfully supporting their development in literacy, numeracy and personal skills. The nursery's Forest School approach and strong home-school partnerships mean children enjoy learning every day.
Key Strengths
- Children make excellent progress in literacy, numeracy and personal, social and emotional development from their individual starting points
- Staff skilfully nurture children's confidence and create a culture where learning is enjoyable and exciting
- The nursery operates as a Forest School centre of excellence, encouraging children to take risks in nature and develop greater confidence
- Strong partnerships with parents through home learning projects, Dads' Brunches and contributions to achievement records
- Excellent inclusive practice with disabled children and those with additional needs making equally good progress
Areas for Improvement
- Checks carried out by leaders and governors are too general and do not provide sharp enough evidence about how successfully the nursery is meeting its identified priorities
- School improvement plan checks do not always link closely enough to expected outcomes by a specified date
Safeguarding
Safeguarding is effective. Staff and governors ensure safeguarding arrangements have the highest priority, with robust checks on staff suitability, meticulous records for children at risk, and regular updates on statutory guidance.
Extracurricular Activities
Forest School activities, outdoor learning, fire pit story time, nature exploration
Pound Park Nursery School continues to be outstanding. The school has maintained its excellent practice since the last inspection in 2011, with experienced staff who understand how young children learn best and work together as a strong team.
