p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

The extremely strong management team has a very clear vision for the club. Safeguarding is effective. For example, leaders and managers recruit rigorously to help ensure staff are suitable to carry out their roles and responsibilities with competence. They ensure staff are aware of the procedures to follow to protect children's welfare and keep up to date with changes in legislation exceptionally well. Leaders and managers provide an excellent emphasis on performance management. They provide staff with appropriate and highly effective coaching and training to help them improve their practice and raise standards to the highest levels.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff have very high expectations of what children can achieve. For example, staff helped children who felt they did not have the skills or ability to create items during a craft activity exceptionally well to achieve beyond their own expectations. Staff interactions with children are of a very high quality and skilfully encourage children's curiosity to find solutions to problems. Children develop high levels of confidence. For example, children confidently show items they have brought in and other children think of questions to ask them about the items. Children have excellent opportunities to work together and express themselves. For example, they excitedly throw paint in a variety of ways onto a large collage sheet on the ground. Staff display their work and children gain a great sense of achievement. They demonstrate high levels of self-esteem. Staff support children's awareness of differences between themselves and others very well through an excellent

variety of activities and resources. Children show a keen interest in early technology, and the leaders and managers have identified this as an area to develop further. Staff encourage children to use a good range of writing materials, for example to write familiar words, which helps to complement their learning in school very effectively.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Children thrive at the extremely well-organised club. Staff gain highly effective information from parents before children start and this helps staff to plan effectively around children's interests and needs. Staff have very high expectations of the children and give them lots of responsibility. For example, they support children to take turns to lead games. Children have an excellent understanding of the boundaries to play safely. Staff reinforce values, such as caring, turn taking and kindness. Children thoroughly enjoy being physically active. For example, they play football, spin hoops and join in team games with their friends. Staff encourage children to be independent. They develop an excellent awareness of hygiene practices and healthy living. Primary School,Guildford, 27 July 2016 4 of 5
