Cotswold Bunnies in the Cowshed received a Good rating across all four legacy framework areas (Quality of Education, Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development, Leadership and Management) in November 2023. This report uses the pre-November 2025 framework and has been mapped to the new 7-area structure. The nursery demonstrates strong foundations with effective safeguarding, good outdoor provision, and positive staff-child relationships. However, two specific areas require attention: staff interactions with quieter, less confident children are inconsistent, and the learning environment for younger children is sometimes cluttered, limiting exploration and movement. The setting is well-positioned for improvement, with qualified staff (including two teachers) and engaged parents supporting children's development.
