p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Leadership and management are exemplary. Staff are exceptionally well qualified and bring their training ideas and enthusiasm into every aspect of their work. They meet frequently to share ideas, plan activities and discuss effective working practices. Safeguarding is effective. All staff are exceptionally well trained in safeguarding policies and procedures and know when and how to contact the Local Safeguarding Children Board. Leadership and management use robust recruitment procedures and monitor staff to ensure their ongoing suitability to care for children. They monitor and evaluate their practice effectively with staff and successfully identify improvements. For instance, they have identified that they need to increase their selection of outdoor ride-on toys and make technology more accessible in response to children's requests. Leadership and management have highly productive links with the school and staff contribute extremely

well to meeting children's needs consistently.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Children enthusiastically enter the club and immediately share news of their day with staff. They settle quickly to activities and benefit from prolonged periods of uninterrupted time to play and experiment. For example, they create marvellous medicine potions mixing shaving foam and paint, and watch this bubble. Staff skilfully ask questions to extend children's thinking such as to recall a story and predict what happens next. Staff make excellent use of unexpected chances for learning which stem from children's curiosity. For example, when children design chocolate bar wrappers, staff supply them with the cooking ingredients to make their own chocolate creations. Close liaison with the reception teacher and regular communication ensure that children's care and learning are effectively shared and their learning is complemented extremely well.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

The children's key persons give them consistently outstanding levels of support at all times. Children learn that being part of a learning community has its responsibilities. Staff nurture teamwork and children are involved in setting the rules for their group. For example, children create an appointment list for the role-play hairdressers to make sure everyone gets a fair turn. Staff teach children how to manage their own safety and to think critically about risks. For example, children wear visibility jackets when playing outside on a dark night and use torches to assess the climbing equipment. They note that it is not safe to play on, due to the slippery surface.
