This provision is good

 The club has a good range of resources and planned activities that interests children. Resources are well organised for children to make independent choices in their play.  Children say that they really enjoy attending the club. They are keen to describe the activities they particularly enjoy, for example, drawing and constructing.  All children in the early years have a key person. Children demonstrate strong attachments with their designated key person. Parents spoken to during the inspection praised the levels of care and support their child's key person provides.  Children are caring towards each other and treat resources with respect. Staff are good role models, which encourages children to understand how to behave appropriately in the club.  The leadership team is determined to provide the best experiences possible for children who attend the club. There is an ethos of deep commitment from every member of

staff, which results in strong teamwork.  Staff work closely with the school that the children attend. They regularly meet with school staff to share relevant information and to provide continuity of care for children.

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Although parents are asked to share their views on the club as part of self-evaluation, the leadership team has not yet identified effective ways to inform all parents about how their views are used to prioritise and shape future improvements.  Occasionally, staff do not gather relevant information about children's diverse range of home cultures to ensure that these are well reflected in the club.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The leadership team seeks the views of staff, children and parents to establish how well the club is meeting the needs of everyone. The team recognises that they need to find more effective ways to communicate the outcomes of these with all parents. There are regular staff supervisions that effectively monitor and support staff development. Club leaders ensure staff access a good range of training courses to strengthen their knowledge and skills. The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff have a sound knowledge of safeguarding procedures and recognise the signs and symptoms of possible abuse or neglect. Recruitment and induction arrangements are robust to establish that new staff are suitable. Club policies and procedures are regularly reviewed to ensure the safety and well-being of children. A number of parents form part of the committee to actively contribute to the running of the club.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children show good levels of motivation as they play and explore. Their communication skills are really well supported. Staff are adept at tuning into children's interests. They give children time to share their thoughts and ideas. Staff listen carefully to what children say and respond positively. Children feel valued and are confident to communicate with other children and staff. The planned activities engage children. During the inspection children designed pirate costumes using felt tips and crayons. Staff supported the children, showing them pictures of pirates to give them ideas for their designs. Children enjoyed comparing their designs with each other. Parents are kept well informed about what is going on in the club. Staff provide good ideas to help parents to support children's learning at home.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children are very well cared for at the club. Staff work hard to provide a welcoming and friendly environment. Children are collected from school and learn about keeping safe as they cross a road to the club. They listen carefully to staff when being reminded to wait for the school crossing patrol to tell them when to cross. Snack times provide opportunities for children to sit together and talk about their day. Snacks are varied and healthy. Children have space to be active or relax. There are good facilities outside for them to enjoy physical exercise. They are starting to understand some of the ways to keep themselves healthy. Children behave well and show a good awareness of the needs of others. Staff are well deployed and are very vigilant in monitoring children's well-being. They make sure that new children feel welcome and included. Children are encouraged to try different ways to achieve a desired outcome, for example, whether glue or tape is
