Inspectors visited Busy Bees Day Nursery in Priorslee on November 25 last year and have concluded that the centre must improve.
The nursery was downgraded from its previous rating of 'Good' and told that is must "plan effectively for staff deployment to meet the learning needs of all children throughout the day, especially first thing in the morning", by this week.
In a report published yesterday (Wednesday), leaders at the nursery with 133 children aged between zero and four-years-old were praised for designing a curriculum that "provides children with a broad range of experiences that reflect the seven areas of learning well".
The report added that the curriculum is "progressive" and that children "benefit from opportunities to develop their understanding of the world through topics such as autumn walks, 'in and around Telford', and creative projects, such as making a cave for a dragon".
Staff were also commended for understanding how to help children to manage their emotions, "especially when they separate from parents", said the report.
Inspectors added: "Staff provide children with warm, nurturing interactions that support children's emotional security."
