This provision is good

 Children have fun at the club. They have good relationships with the staff and each other. Staff join in with the children's games and are good role models for children. Children understand the staff's expectations and behave well.  Staff involve children in planning and spend time finding out their interests. They motivate children and ensure that they find alternative activities if they choose not to join in with group games.  Since their last inspection, the management team and staff share good information with parents and teachers. Staff get to know the children well and understand how they can support their learning and enjoyment. Staff give daily verbal feedback to parents and pass on any messages from school, to provide consistency in children's care.  The club is managed well. For example, good staff induction ensures they have a strong knowledge of their responsibilities and know who to go to for further support, to

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The management team ensures that staff have a good understanding of how to keep children safe and know what to do if they are at risk of harm. Staff monitor children's attendance closely and following up any absences. The management team and staff evaluate what is working well and gain children's opinions to help them target where they need to make improvements. For example, they are currently extending the resources to offer children more 'risky play' to develop their skills and awareness of assessing risks for themselves. The management team is gathering parents' feedback to see how they can engage parents more fully in their self-evaluation. The management team regularly attends the club to observe staff practice and find ways to raise the quality of teaching. Staff also work in the company nurseries and receive good support and opportunities for professional development. For example, they attend staff

meetings and in-house training to develop their knowledge and share best practice. This helped them identify how best to support children's personal and social skills.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children engage in a good range of activities. Staff support children well to develop skills that help them at school. They engage children in good discussions and help extend their vocabulary, ensuring younger children feel confident to contribute. For example, they talk about how people used to light fires in the past and they explain the meaning of 'friction' to younger children. Staff encourage children well to take the lead. For example, children play board games together and older children help the younger ones to learn the rules and take turns. Staff skilfully help children to think of ways to solve problems for themselves. For example, children decide to snap sticks to make them the right size for their pretend fire. Staff use daily routines well to support children's learning. Children count how many children are present and if they have enough cups for everyone.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children develop a strong sense of belonging. The caring and nurturing staff take the time to get to know children and their families. They help children settle quickly and enjoy their time at the club. Children learn to listen to others' opinions and manage any conflict through mutual agreement. For example, children vote on all issues. Children have a good understanding of keeping healthy. Staff show them how to clean their hands thoroughly, including between their fingers and the backs of their hands. They help children learn how some bacteria are good for you and some can be bad. Staff successfully help children to do things themselves and be independent, such as peeling fruit and pouring drinks. Children have daily opportunities to be outdoors and be active.
