A Paisley nursery and out-of-school care has received positive praise following a recent inspection.

Two members of the Care Inspectorate made an unannounced visit over two days in August to Maxwellton Park Nursery and Out of School Care (OSC) which operates in West Primary School in Paisley.

Based on a scale of one to six where one is unsatisfactory and six is excellent, it was rated as five - meaning 'very good' - for its setting, and for its staff team. It was ranked as four, or 'good' for its leadership and for its care, play and learning.

Among its key messages, the report by the inspectors said: "Children experienced warm, nurturing interactions from staff who knew them well, helping them feel secure and supported."
