Top marks for Wokingham Ambleside
It was top marks for The Wokingham Ambleside Centre in Woodley following the publication of a report by Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted).
The inspectors focused on the Wokingham nursery for three to five-year-olds, The Meadows, which scored outstanding for all categories including overall effectiveness, achievements and standards, personal development and well-being, teaching and learning, care, guidance and support, curriculum and leadership and management.
Inspectors praised the outstanding quality of the nursery education and said the aim ‘to develop independent learners who have high self-esteem, self-confidence and care for others’ is ‘met extremely successfully’.
Also highlighted in the report was the overwhelming support of parents. One commented: ‘I cannot sing the school’s praises enough’ whilst another said: ‘I am continually impressed with the care and attention given to my son.’ Achievements are outstanding at the centre and this has resulted in exceptionally high standards. There are excellent relationships between the centre’s staff and children, which has helped their personal, social and emotional development.
Inspectors were impressed with the children’s exemplary behaviour and stated ‘they have remarkable levels of independence’. This is demonstrated by many of the children negotiating and solving problems without adult support. From the earliest of ages, children share responsibility, select resources to use and put things away in their allotted places. It was clear to the inspectors that the children love learning new things and are very good at sharing, taking turns, talking and being kind to one another.
