The provision does not meet requirements

 Safeguarding is not effective. Staff do not have a suitable understanding of child protection issues. They are unable to explain the different types of abuse, possible indicators or what they would do if there were concerns about staff in the setting.  Through discussion, staff demonstrate a suitable understanding of how to promote children's enjoyment and meet their needs. Staff have a strong partnership with the school so that they can complement and support any learning needs.  Staff demonstrate a sound understanding of how to help children to understand the expectations. They explain how the club rules are similar to those within the school to ensure there is a consistent approach. They display nominations for good behaviour to encourage children to behave well and help others.  Staff understand the importance of ensuring the premises are safe. They demonstrate how they manage the safe use of the indoor and outdoor space.

The report states whether the provider continues to meet the requirements of registration.
