Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The manager and staff are well qualified and attend a wide range of training, both in house and externally. Staff support each other well and are led by a positive, experienced and qualified management team. The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The robust recruitment and supervision procedures ensure that all staff have a solid knowledge and understanding of how to protect children in their care. Children's development is monitored well and key persons ensure gaps in children's learning are quickly identified and shared with the teachers. The staff team has a good working relationship. They offer consistency of care and have strong partnerships within the community, including the local school and the local authority early years team. Parents receive clear information about the club through regular newsletters and ongoing daily discussions with staff.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children enjoy playing with a wide selection of good quality toys and resources. Activities are based on children's interests and the environment is adapted to support their learning well after a structured day at school. This contributes towards children being motivated and able to explore freely. Children socialise well with both staff and their friends as they talk about their day at school and their approaching holidays. Children are very keen to take part in the painting activity, choosing what colours they would like. They confidently write their names on the reverse side of their painting, expressing that they want to take it home. Children concentrate well on the activity and have very good support and guidance from the friendly staff. Staff provide good continuity and consistency for children and have developed trusting relationships with their peers. Staff record observations of children's play and make sure important information is passed on to parents and teachers.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff help to prepare and support children well as they move on through the school.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children's behaviour is very good. Children are able to resolve issues and take turns, with little support from staff. Staff give children lots of praise and clear explanations about conduct. They have successfully created a very caring and secure environment where all children are warmly welcomed and feel extremely well supported. Children enjoy healthy and nutritious snacks and independently access these and drinks of water throughout the session. Staff teach children about staying safe as they practise regular fire drills and older children know to close the safety gate behind them. Children have a good understanding of how to take risks and stay safe, both indoors and outside. Children have lots of opportunities to be physically active and develop their coordination skills. They freely access the outdoor area and choose from the wide variety of activities and resources.
