Tashbar Boys’ Nursery is a welcoming place where everyone is valued. Leaders have high expectations for how children should behave. Children understand that the rules are there to help them to manage their feelings and behaviour. Incidents of negative behaviour or bullying are extremely rare. Children have positive attitudes to their learning. This happens most when staff plan activities which require high curiosity and concentration. Staff create calm, social and orderly classrooms where children can concentrate. They also plan activities which excite and motivate children. Staff skilfully manage this so that children access all areas of the early years curriculum. Children work alongside each other in harmony, as well as on their own. They enjoy playing with their peers at social times. They treat each other with respect. Children enjoy going on visits, and recently visited a wetland centre. Children recalled how some birds can live in water and on land. Children learn about life cycles through, for example, looking after eggs until they hatch into chickens, and by observing caterpillars turn into butterflies. Parents and carers are exceptionally positive about their children’s experiences. One parent said leaders and staff ‘provide a very nurturing and caring environment for the children to thrive’. Another parent stated that the level of the pastoral support for their children is ‘phenomenal’.
