Ofsted report that in the best childcare settings:

• Leaders have a clear sense of purpose, an ambition for excellence and a clear vision for the future of the setting
• Managers are self-motivated, good communicators and able to get the best from those they work with
• There is an atmosphere of infectious enthusiasm where adults are highly motivated and committed
• All adults share responsibility for continuously improving outcomes
• There is an active training and development programme for all staff, including those that have been in the setting for some time.

("Leading to Excellence" Ofsted 2008)
