Information about the setting

More Enmore Breakfast and Afterschool Club registered in 2013. It is run by a limited company, who also have two day nurseries and three afterschool clubs registered with Ofsted in the Bridgwater area. The club operates from a classroom, with adjacent toilet facilities, situated within the grounds of Enmore Church of England Primary School in Enmore, Somerset. Children have access from the classroom to the school playing fields and also have use of the playground and hall.

p.3

Information about the setting

The club is registered on the Early Years Register and the compulsory and voluntary parts of the Childcare Register. The club is open weekdays during term time only from 8am until 9am and from 3.30pm until 6pm. There is currently one child attending on a part-time basis in the early years age range. There are two members of staff employed to work directly with the children, one of whom holds an early years qualification at level three.

p.3

To further improve the quality of the early years provision the provider should:

 develop further information sharing with parents to fully support consistency in children's learning.

p.3

who attend

Staff plan exciting experiences for the children that relate to current themes, their interests and complement the topics children are learning about at school. For example, staff dress in a combat uniform and support children to develop further understanding of camouflage as they play hide and seek. Staff plan additional activities, such as making a papier-mch helmet and tasting composite rations. Planning is flexible and staff are good at listening to children's ideas. For example, children decide to extend their time outside or to make modelling dough for the following day's session. This enhances children's self- esteem.

p.3

who attend

Children thoroughly enjoy cooking activities, such as making rice crispy cakes. Children weigh out the ingredients and mix them together using tools appropriately. Children become aware of safety, such as melting chocolate, and describe what is happening. Children learn good independent skills, such as washing up when they have finished. Staff encourage children to develop these skills further. For example, children thoroughly enjoy exploring the shredded paper making their own cakes. Staff ask questions and encourage them to talk through the process to promote children's communication skills well. Parents provide staff with information about children's interests and starting points. Staff use this information productively in their initial planning. Staff encourage children to talk about the activities during 'reflection' time to influence future experiences. Staff make regular observations of children's engagement in activities identifying how children learn

p.3

who attend

and how they can be challenged further. Staff regularly share this information with the reception class teacher so that appropriate targets can be set and shared with parents. This actively supports children as they move onto the next steps in their learning and development.

p.4

The contribution of the early years provision to the well-being of children

Staff provide children with a comfortable environment, which meets their needs well. There is an ample range of toys and resources. Staff effectively position resource boxes so that they are in easy reach for children to make choices for themselves. Children are happy and confident at the club. Staff establish respectful relationships with the children and know them well. There are familiar routines, which help children settle quickly. For example, when entering the classroom children sit at a desk, respond to their name when staff call it and listen to instructions well. Children's behaviour is good and they are well mannered. Staff ensure that children are aware of expectations and boundaries through consistent club rules, such as avoiding the environmental area. Children are actively involved in well-planned activities and staff keep them consistently engaged and busy.

p.4

The contribution of the early years provision to the well-being of children

Children develop good understanding of healthy lifestyles. They have a balanced snack and tea, such as satsuma and toast. Children are encouraged to make choices about the topping they would like on their toast and use knives safely. Children remind staff that they need to use the hand sanitiser before eating. Children have regular opportunities to be outside and active. This provides children with good opportunities to play and learn together and to engage in turn taking games. For example, children enjoy chasing games as they throw and retrieve a foam projectile. Staff offer children hot chocolate when they come in from playing outside in the cold to warm up. Drinks are readily available and children pour their own when they are thirsty.

p.4

provision

Staff have good knowledge of the safeguarding and welfare requirements to promote children's well-being. For example, staff routinely record accidents and share these with parents. Staff provide a safe and secure environment, which is effectively risk assessed. Staff are good at adapting activities to enable children's safety, such as removing equipment if accidents occur until children are able to use them safely. The management team ensure that all staff are suitable for their role. There are comprehensive induction and supervision arrangements to enable all staff to be familiar with policies and procedures, such as practising the emergency evacuation procedure. There are effective procedures in place to enable staff to access relevant training and to improve their knowledge. All staff attend safeguarding training to enable them to have good knowledge of child protection issues to maintain children's well-being. This ensures that all staff are

p.4

provision

aware of their responsibility to report any concerns about a child in their care.

p.5

provision

Staff have good understanding of the use of technology to safeguard children. Parents provide permission for staff to take photographs. Staff ensure that the tablet is code protected and photographs are stored appropriately. Staff share photographs with some parents at collection to show them what activities their children have enjoyed that day. However, not all parents receive ongoing information about these activities and the weekly themes. This does not fully support consistency in children's learning and development at all times. Written policies and procedures are available to parents on request. Staff maintain good partnerships with the school. There is a good exchange of information with the reception class teacher on a regular basis.

p.5

provision

The club use evaluation well to drive improvement. For example, as the club has been open a term they are reviewing what resources they have on site and what they can bring from the other settings. Staff highlight that in order to complement children's interests, they will extend information and technology equipment. Staff work together to improve the provision, such as extending outdoor play in the winter months by providing a boot rack so that children can leave boots at the club. Staff involve children and parents in the evaluation process, such as regular questionnaires about the provision and how practice can be improved.
