According to Ofsted, Wool Pre-school…
“Staff provide a safe and welcoming environment where children settle quickly. Children build good relationships with staff and one another. They learn to respect others feelings and manage their own emotions well. ”
“Staff provide a broad range of activities. Children learn through play and exploration, and learn through routines that help prepare them well for school”.
“Children make good progress. Management and staff monitor children’s development well, which helps them to identify and address gaps in children’s learning. Staff establish effective partnerships with parents and other professionals.”
