Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Managers work highly effectively to maintain a consistently high-quality provision. Safeguarding is effective. Managers ensure staff have a robust knowledge of the procedures to follow if they are concerned about a child. Managers monitor the quality of teaching and quality of the activities staff provide and place high priority on staff training. The excellent programme of professional development always focuses on impact for children. For example, staff consistently show expertise in the high-quality experiences they provide, which means that all children thoroughly enjoy their time at the club. Managers evaluate their practice rigorously and have a clear focus on continuous improvement. For example, they have recently incorporated activities to encourage children to carry out independent tasks and are keen to develop this even further.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

All children thoroughly enjoy exploring their environment. The highly experienced staff team know children exceptionally well. They carry out extremely precise observations of children and use their expert knowledge to plan challenging activities that build on children's existing skills. This complements children's learning at school and helps to promote their progress towards the next stages in their development. Staff consistently listen to children, show a genuine interest in children's ideas, and extend their creativity and thinking extremely well. For example, older children worked closely with their younger peers inventing a game, showing an excellent understanding of number. Staff nurtured this interest and provided additional resources, supporting new skills, such as an understanding of calculation.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Children benefit from excellent opportunities to learn about being healthy. For example, they learn to take risks and play safely. They thoroughly enjoyed limbo dancing, which helped to promote their physical agility. Staff consistently praise children's achievements and nurture children as unique individuals. They integrate children's culture into practice and promote children's self-esteem and self-awareness extremely well. For example, children worked exceptionally well as a team, solved problems, and showed great pride in completing their fantastic robot from the abundance of natural resources provided. Children behave exceptionally well. For example, they consistently show kindness to their friends, learn to show respect and play cooperatively with others.
