A NURSERY in Marshfields has been described as a “safe, vibrant and stimulating environment” by Ofsted inspectors.

Children’s Place Mayfield, based at the Mayfield Centre on Broadway Avenue, was judged good in every category in an Ofsted report published this week.

When the nursery, run by Children’s Place Day Nurseries, was last inspected in 2013 it was judged to be “satisfactory.”

The new report says: “Staff act as positive role models, helping children to learn important social skills.

“Staff create a safe, vibrant and stimulating environment. Inclusion is at the heart of the nursery. Staff are proactive in reflecting the backgrounds of the families who attend. This helps to foster their sense of belonging.

“Any gaps between the attainment of groups, including children who speak English as an additional language and those who have special educational needs, are closing.”
