“A well qualified and experienced staff team and highly motivated to continually improve the quality of the provision. Management and staff work together with parents and children to continually improve outcomes for children. Effective self-evaluation identifies strengths and highlights development areas which are effectively targeted and frequently monitored to test out the impact on the quality of children’s care, learning and development.

For example, gathering information from parents about their children’s learning at home to help key workers build a fuller picture of children’s knowledge, skills and abilities , interests and preferred learning styles and help children maximise their opportunities.”
