Kids Planet Ashton

Kids Planet Ashton received an overall Good rating across all four legacy framework areas (Quality of Education, Behaviour and Attitudes, Personal Development, Leadership and Management), all graded Good. This report has been mapped to the November 2025 seven-area framework. Safeguarding is Met with effective arrangements and a positive culture. The setting demonstrates strong parent partnerships, effective behaviour management, and good well-being practices. However, three key areas require focused investment: curriculum planning and sequencing lacks coherence and does not build sufficiently on prior learning; assessment is not always linked to individual children's targets to provide appropriate challenge; and staff supervision is not precise or reflective enough to drive continuous improvement in teaching practice. The setting is well-positioned for progression to Strong Standard across multiple areas with targeted support in these three domains.
