This provision is good

 Children enjoy the good range of activities and experiences and are motivated in their play.  Senior managers successfully support new staff to develop their confidence to lead activities.

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff fully understand child protection procedures. They regularly attend safeguarding and first aid training. This successfully promotes children's health, safety and well-being. All staff receive regular coaching, support and training which has a good impact on children's outcomes. Staff routinely monitor activities to ensure children are provided with good challenge. The organisation regularly seeks the views of parents, children and staff to make ongoing improvements to the provision. As a result, parents now receive regular information about activities that involve them in events, such as bird watching competitions. Children are provided with a wide variety of food at snack time. Recommendations made at the last inspection have been met. Drinking water is made easily accessible to children, indoors and outdoors. Children have more opportunities to choose to take part in activities.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children persist and concentrate well during activities and extend the skills they develop in school. Staff use children's individual interests to effectively promote their involvement. For example, children make cat masks using glue, card and collage resources. Children play imaginatively. They build dens with sheets and pegs, dress up, and use resources in a home corner. Staff provide children with good challenge during their play. For example, children enthusiastically aim for 'the best of three', when throwing basketballs into a net. They confidently share their ideas while using the available resources, for example, when creating nail and ring designs. Staff make drawing resources accessible outdoors, which children use while sitting in a wooden gazebo. Children develop good independence. They help to wash and dry the plates and cups after snack time.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children are happy to attend the holiday and after school clubs. They have good self- confidence and social skills. Older children often help younger children during activities. Staff provide children with a positive role model. They encourage children to ask politely when they need help, for example, to do up their coats. Children eagerly talk to staff about their achievements in school. For example, they say that they 'can write up to 100' and proudly show the stickers they receive for this achievement. There are good ratios of adults to children. Children's individual care needs are well known and met. Staff promote children's physical well-being effectively. Girls and boys run energetically around the school playground and kick footballs with their friends. They take part in a wide range of active outdoor games and are well supervised so they remain safe. 7 January 2016 4 of 5
