p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The provider ensures that the manager and all staff have a good understanding of their roles and responsibilities. They are all aware of the correct procedures to follow should they have concerns about children's welfare. The provider and manager ensure that all staff follow robust policies and procedures to ensure children's safety. The provider arranges opportunities for staff to attend training provided by the school to benefit children. Arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Strong working partnerships with parents, carers and teachers enable the provider and manager to seek their views and evaluate practice to set targets for ongoing improvements to the club. Together they create a safe and welcoming environment for children's enjoyment.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff discuss current learning and themes with the nursery and school that children attend and combine this into their planning, whenever possible, to complement children's learning. Staff play alongside children and get to know what activities and games they like to play. Children are independent and confidently select equipment and toys of their interest. They counted as they twirled hula-hoops around their waist, took turns and followed the rules during the games. They are eager to talk about their favourite games and toys. Staff place a high focus on developing children's communication skills and effectively support children who are learning English as an additional language. They teach children about the differences in their cultures and some of the customs and celebrations of others in the wider world.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff know children well and meet their individual needs well. Children benefit from having a key person, who helps them settle in when they first start. Children are happy and secure at the club. They are familiar with the indoor and outdoor surroundings and move around with confidence. Staff provide a wealth of opportunities to develop children's physical skills. For example, they enjoy playing football, tennis, ball games and taking part in obstacle courses. Some children patiently wait for their turn to skip over the rope as they say rhymes, and younger children enjoy popping bubbles outside. Staff help children to learn about healthy choices; they choose from the nutritious snacks offered. Staff praise children's efforts and achievements. Children use good manners and understand what acceptable behaviour is. Children behave well.
