It’s so Good to be at Keynsham!
Snapdragons Keynsham was recently inspected by Ofsted and we’re happy to share that life is “good” there! Two inspectors spent the day meeting staff, children and parents and found that the provision was “Good” in all areas. The report noted that,
“Children are happy and well cared for at this welcoming nursery. They form secure attachments with the staff, who know them well. Leaders create an ambitious curriculum to support children to gain the skills they need for future learning. Children display positive attitudes to learning. They are confident to explore the spacious learning environment, which staff thoughtfully set up to meet their development needs. Babies receive cuddles from the caring staff. This helps them to feel safe and secure.
Staff and leaders place a strong focus on supporting children's emotional wellbeing [and] value children as unique individuals and encourage them to share their cultures and traditions.
Parents' feedback is extremely positive. They highlight staff's dedication and professionalism and value the range of experiences on offer, such as forest school sessions.
Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and/or in receipt of additional funding make very good progress.”
Manager, Hannah Saunders, was pleased with the result following this, her first Ofsted Inspection: “I was so proud of my team who show-cased our gorgeous setting and the stimulating and caring environment we have created for our children. We’ve recently welcomed a new cohort of apprentices to the team, so an Ofsted inspection so early in their careers was daunting, but they all responded so positively. And I’d like to say a big “thank you” to all our parents who gave us such glowing feedback.”
