Ashbourne Day Nurseries at Cheltenham received a Good rating across all areas in their first routine inspection (August 2024). The inspection used the legacy 4-area framework (Quality of Education, Behaviour & Attitudes, Personal Development, Leadership & Management), all graded Good. These have been mapped to the November 2025 7-area framework: Safeguarding (Met), Inclusion (Good/75), Curriculum and Teaching (Good/75), Achievement (Good/75), Behaviour/Attitudes/Routines (Good/75), Welfare/Well-being (Good/75), and Leadership/Governance (Good/75). The nursery demonstrates strong relationships with families, a broad curriculum, and effective safeguarding. The single area for improvement identified by inspectors concerns extending children's learning during play—staff sometimes miss opportunities to deepen thinking and encourage independent problem-solving. The setting is well-led with supportive management, good staff training access, and effective SEND support. Overall score: 75 (Good standard).
