RAINBOW Pre-School has been officially recognised as Outstanding, after its recent Ofsted inspection.
The Newnham Avenue pre-school was given the Outstanding rating in all 17 categories, and the inspection also highlighted the caring environment and strong parental support.
There are six members of staff at Rainbow, which is based at Priory Methodist Church, and between them they have worked there for 35 years.
The report praised their work, saying: “The setting’s genuine commitment to understanding each child and recognising their individuality means that all children are truly respected and are supported in developing a positive sense of self.
“Children make excellent progress and are offered highly appropriate, yet sensitive support, ensuring that their needs are met and they can participate meaningfully in the activities and daily routines.”
The report added: “Dedicated staff confidently utilise exceptional assessment and planning procedures, meaning that children are offered a creative variety of activities, which reflect their interests and developmental needs.
“Excellent partnerships with parents, carers and other professionals ensure that children’s care is consistent and their welfare is promoted.”
Jane Slapp, manager of Rainbow Pre-School, said: “This report acknowledges the commitment that every member of staff devotes to the children here and we are thrilled with the inspectors’ findings.
“Our pre-school is focused on tailoring support and education to each child’s individual needs so that they make the best possible progress. Our children are also a credit to the pre-school, showing great care and support for one another and great enthusiasm for learning.”
