Congratulations to First Steps Nursery in Lowton, which received a glowing report from Ofsted inspectors at their recent visit.
The nursery, on Robson Way, Lowton, was rated ‘Good’ in all areas after the inspection on 26 November 2024.
Inspectors said: “Leaders and staff have designed an ambitious, well-planned curriculum to ignite
children’s imagination and curiosity.
“Children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and children in receipt of additional
funding, are well supported. The excellent key-person system and accurate use of assessment means that gaps in children’s learning and any specific needs are identified early and acted on quickly.
“All children make good progress in their learning and development.”
Inspectors also noted that children at First Steps clearly enjoy the nursery, as they: “arrive full of chatter and
excitement” and separate from their parents with ease, keen to go off any get involved with the activities on offer.
Well done to everyone involved on such a lovely report.
