ISI Key Findings
Children have regular opportunities to be outdoors, such as during forest school activities. They learn about the world around them, exploring, making dens and climbing trees. This supports children to learn about risk and challenge and to use tools and equipment. They similarly learn about plants in the environment and follow clear rules. These opportunities enable children to begin to understand rules and boundaries. (66) Staff promote positive behaviour well. They provide plenty of praise and positive feedback to children. For example, in the toddler room, staff congratulate children when they successfully create towers with colourful pegs. This helps to boost levels of self-esteem. (68) Children are encouraged to express their emotions. They have opportunities to socialise with others and learn how to interact respectfully with kind hands and words. Staff use clear and consistent instructions to support children to make good choices. For instance, children willingly join in with activities and respond well to staff who guide them in their learning. (69)
