p.1

This provision requires improvement. It is not yet good because:

 The camp has relocated to temporary room within the school which is not fully secure.  Senior leaders do not have a secure overview of the provision. They are not providing support swiftly enough to enable the manager to resolve issues which affect the running of the setting.  Staff do not do enough to help children understand about the impact diet and good hygiene has on their health.

p.1

It has the following strengths

 Children are well behaved. They work with staff to develop and implement simple camp rules that keep them safe while they have fun. For example, they know that while they play, they must always be able to see an adult in a blue uniform.  Children have good opportunities to develop their physical skills. For example, they participate in a wide variety of sports-based activities throughout the day.  Staff work well together as a team. They are enthusiastic and build good relationships with the children.

Inspection activities

 The inspector completed a joint observation with the manager and discussed the findings.  The inspector observed staff and children involved in a variety of activities and sports and spoke to them at appropriate times.  The inspector sampled documentation including staff files, risk assessments and policies and procedures.  The inspector held a meeting with the manager to discuss self-evaluation and staff development and spoke to the regional manager on the telephone.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management requires improvement

Safeguarding is effective. Staff have completed training and have a good understanding about child protection. They are clear on the procedures to follow if they have a concern about a child's welfare. The manager deploys staff effectively so that children are well supervised and supported, particularly those who are new. Staff undertake risk assessments and, while most procedures in place keep children safe, they have not ensured the door into the main hall cannot be opened by visitors. There are some methods to monitor and evaluate the provision. For example, staff and children reflect on the day. Together they talk about what the children have enjoyed most and plan the activities for the following day. Senior leaders provide some support to the manager and staff. For example, induction days ensure staff are familiar with how the camp operates and individual meetings provide opportunities for staff to discuss their development.

Effectiveness of the leadership and management requires improvement

However, senior leaders do not always respond quickly to help the manager with the day- to-day running of the camp such as addressing issues with the premises.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff interact well with the children and actively participate in the activities they provide. They clearly know the children well and use effective teaching methods such as demonstrating new skills to successfully encourage children to achieve. For example, even the youngest children enjoy learning how to play hockey. They know to keep their sticks low to the ground so that they can safely control the ball. Staff skilfully challenge children of all ages to achieve well. They successfully plan activities that take account of children's individual interests and abilities. Staff recognise when children are losing interest and quickly offer alternatives to motivate the children to achieve and gain a sense of satisfaction. Children enjoy their time at the camp. They excitedly talk about the new sports they have experienced such as curling.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare require improvement

Children are confident and are keen to participate in the sports and activities. Staff are skilled at involving all children and make them feel valued and respected. Children build good relationships with each other and the staff. For example, children listen to each other with interest as they introduce themselves in turn and talk about their favourite animal and their favourite game. Children are encouraged to be independent in their personal care. However, staff do not always support them in learning about healthy lifestyles. For example, they do not do enough to help children understand how to make healthy food choices or how to follow good hygiene routines prior to eating.
