Staff and youngsters at Stepping Stones Nursery, in Froxfield, near Marlborough, are celebrating after achieving an outstanding Ofsted report.

The nursery looks after 35 children aged between 18 months and four and was given the highest grade in all four areas.

In its last inspection, in 2009, the nursery was told it “needs improvement”.

Manager Sue Corfield praised her team and said that the report reflects their hard work.

She said: “At Stepping Stones, we are proud to devote our energies to creating a fun and loving environment while delivering the best in childcare and education.

“Our goal is to create a positive and motivating experience that will, in turn, play a major role in a child’s future learning and development.”
