This provision is good

 Children state that they really enjoy attending the club. They comment that they like playing with their friends and taking part in all of the activities. They particularly enjoy the varied range of snacks on offer to them before and after school.  Staff focus really well on including children in planning and evaluating all activities. As a result, children are motivated and enthusiastic. They stay occupied and interested in their chosen activities throughout the session.  Children's well-being is promoted very well by staff. Children enjoy being in a harmonious environment. They develop very positive relationships with staff and they enjoy playing with younger and older children. Children are well prepared for the start of the school day and they quickly relax and become at ease after school.  The manager promotes a culture of reflection and continuous improvement. All staff are very motivated to ensure all children feel a part of the club and enjoy themselves.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff know what action to take to keep children safe and to protect them from harm. Recruitment, vetting, induction and ongoing suitability checks are robust and help to ensure staff are suitable to work with children. The well qualified, skilled and enthusiastic staff group is continually developing their knowledge and skills. They seek and act upon children's views on a daily basis. This leads to continuous and well-targeted improvements. Currently, staff and children are working together to develop a comfy and well-stocked book area. Partnerships with parents are very positive. Parents are invited to become committee members so they can contribute to the running of the club.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children are supported well to be independent and confident learners who enjoy taking part in a varied range of interesting and challenging activities. They are highly motivated to take part in sessions where they learn simple words and phrases in a number of languages, including French, German and Spanish. Children take part in shared thinking and decision making. They plan and take part in topics and express their thoughts and feelings. Children spend time thinking about and describing what they would like to do when they grow up. They explore what it means to them to have friends. Children take part in a varied range of craft activities and they show pride in their displayed work. They enjoy taking part in conversations with staff members and other children.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The club has a very welcoming and relaxed atmosphere and children develop a secure sense of belonging. Children are happy to arrive and take care of their own needs. For example, they put their coats and bags away and wash their hands for snack time. They select their snack and sit to chat with their friends. They take an active role in planning activities and fundraising events, and they have helped to develop the healthy and nutritious menu. Children can choose to play inside or outdoors. They state that they particularly enjoy being active outdoors and using the wide range of challenging equipment available. Children work as a team to develop the club's behavioural rules and they aspire to achieve good behaviour and achievement awards. They are eager to take responsibility for tasks, such as washing and putting away their plates after eating and being the book monitor. Children take part in discussions and activities that help them to
