News Following our first Ofsted inspection we have been graded as Satisfactory with elements of good in many areas. We are pleased that the Ofsted inspector noted the good relationship we have with parents and partners. The areas that need addressing will ensure we continue to build on the work we do here and in the community. Many thanks to all the parents who spoke to the inspector - she had nothing but praise for the support we give each other. Click here to see our Ofsted report The Children’s Centre and Fire Service are now working in partnership to promote a range of safety features in the community. They came to our Under 1’s group on 9th February to talk about safety in the home, and will be visiting our messy play sessions. Watch this space for further visits – they will bring the Fire Engine to any of our events – always a draw for the children!
