Inspections before November 2025 gave one overall rating rather than grading each area.
Little Explorers Nursery and Pre-school Ltd in Gosport, Hampshire was last inspected on 3 June 2026. That inspection used Ofsted's report card framework, which replaced single-word overall ratings for early years settings in November 2025.
Ofsted graded 6 areas: curriculum and teaching — Needs Attention; achievement — Needs Attention; behaviour and routines — Needs Attention; welfare and wellbeing — Urgent Improvement; inclusion — Needs Attention; leadership and governance — Needs Attention. Each area is judged separately, so a setting can be stronger in one than another.
