who attend. This is outstanding

Staff teaching is outstanding and they provide an excellent range of well-planned activities. Some activities are planned and chosen by children, and staff know the children very well and ensure that individual interests are always catered for. In addition, other activities are theme based or linked to learning at school. This means that children have time to get deeply involved, which and helps them make even more progress. Staff offer children high levels of challenge in play. For example, when children are playing bat and ball they learn about distance and time to extend their mathematical development and this helps them think more deeply. Children are highly motivated by activities. For example, children spend very long periods of time deeply engaged in creative activities. Children and staff engage in rich conversations which enhances children's language skills greatly.

outstanding

The club is calm and the children's behaviour is excellent. Children fully understand the club rules as staff are consistently good role models, praising their achievements at the club and in school. Children are motivated and actively involved in all activities and they show a lot of independence as they choose and serve their own healthy snacks. Staff share teaching strategies with the older children which that they use with their younger peers, such as encouraging them to persevere and do things for themselves. This enhances children's social skills very well and supports their emotional well-being. Children play outdoors daily and have access to a range of areas for different types of play, for example, a football court and quieter seated areas to sit and talk to their friends. Children are particularly motivated by team sports games, which are led exceptionally well by staff. This supports their social skills and their understanding of exercise and healthy lifestyles.

provision is outstanding

The manager and staff are well qualified and experienced. Consequently, so children benefit from a professional team who that understands fully how to support them in developing new skills. Staff have a range of expertise which has a positive effect on the quality of learning and the overall provision. For example, staff have experience in delivering small group learning to children with special educational needs and/or disabilities, and they provide expert support to them while at the club. Daily safety checks ensure the environments are safe for children. Leaders have robust and highly effective recruitment methods to ensure all staff are suitable to work with children. Parent partnerships are very strong and leaders have identified how they can strengthen this further by using parents' skills more in the club. School staff describe the club as an asset to the school.
