"Very Good" Grades for Little Beehive Cupar in most recent Inspection!

We are delighted to announce that Little Beehive Cupar have received all 5’s (Very Good) in their most recent inspection!

Care inspectorate grades nurseries from 1 – 6, with 1 being the lowest and 6 being the highest (Exceptional). A Grade of 5 represents the second highest grade possible, and recognition of a “Very Good” standard.

“We are absolutely delighted with our inspection gradings and it goes to show the fantastic quality the Little Beehive team deliver day to day.” Carol (Director) commented.

The inspection took place over 1 day and all four areas were assessed by the inspector. The four areas represent the quality framework and are key indicators to the quality of a nursery setting. These 4 areas are;

“How good is our Care, Play and Learning?”

“How Good is our setting?”

“How Good is our leadership?”

“How good is our staff team?”

All have now been graded 5 (Very Good).

Manager Tony, had this to say “I am so incredibly proud of the team we have here at Little Beehive Cupar. It is through their hard work and tireless dedication that we have achieved such amazing results. Thanks also to our wonderful parents and carers for the continuous involvement and support we receive. Onwards and upwards!”

The news of the gradings made its way to local MP Wendy Chamberlain who stopped by the nursery to say congratulations to the team and meet some of the children.

“Our goal is to produce the best Early Learning environment for the children of our communities and we will continue to do that, we are constantly looking at ways to develop and improve our service for the children. Carol (Director) continued, “These grades are a representation of the amazing effort and work put in by the Practitioners, Room leaders, Cooks, cleaners and all the amazing support staff.  A huge thank you to everyone of them”
