Highfield Children's Centre, Ipswich
What was it like to get an outstanding Ofsted report after only beingopen six months?
We were absolutely delighted. I started really wanting to be involved inchildren's centres like Highfield where we had a nursery school and acommunity centre together, because you are able to go that much furtherwith parents.
What factors contributed to such a good result?
Ofsted said our team are fantastic and warm, and they really relate tothe children. The garden is open all the time so children can access itwhenever they want. It's the child's choice.
What are your plans for the future?
To continue with our outstanding practice and to develop the nurseryschool garden further, getting everyone to help.
