On the Ladybirds setting,
the report goes on to state:
"Ladybird Pre-school
is a lively playgroup, effectively providing a wide range of stimulating
activities which are helping children to make good progress towards the
early learning goals. Children's behaviour is very good. The quality of
teaching is very good. The strong team approach their work imaginatively,
using the premises and resources to full advantage, and their planning
is good. The programmes of activities in personal, social and emotional

development are all good. There is a strong partnership with parents which
contributes positively to the children's well-being and progress."
