This provision is good

 Children are happy and busy with activities that interest them.  The managers follow secure procedures for recruitment and staff training. This helps to ensure the continued suitability of staff and their motivation in their role.  Children sit in social groups with their friends while enjoying a variety of healthy meals and snacks. They have access to different types of physical play every day, keeping them fit and healthy.  Children understand and follow behaviour rules that are clearly displayed. Children listen carefully to staff and show respect for each other. They are kind and polite and form strong friendships.  There is an emphasis on staff development to support continued improvement. Managers constantly review the effectiveness of the planning, policies and procedures. Regular action plans ensure consistency in meeting high standards.

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Staff have not fully explored the most effective ways to obtain more information about the children's learning in class, to complement the planning of activities to meet their individual needs.  Staff do not consistently provide children with opportunities to share their ideas about what they would like to do.

Inspection activities

 The inspector sampled a range of documentation and checked evidence of staff's qualifications and suitability.  The inspector held discussions with the managers about the progress and improvements of the club.  The inspector observed staff and children interacting together during activities indoors and in the playground.  The inspector spoke to children and parents to consider their views on the service they receive.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Recent training has had a significant impact on staff's wider understanding of keeping children safe. For example, new procedures for children to leave the room to go to the toilet are fully understood by staff, children and parents. All staff know the procedures to follow if they consider a child to be at risk from harm. They have a good understanding of how to work in partnerships with other agencies and are able to pursue any areas of concern with rigour. Staff are supported by a strong management team. Managers closely monitor the records, to ensure staff comply with the welfare requirements. They also collate views from parents to feed back to staff and put forward any ideas that result from surveys. Parents report that they have confidence that their children are well looked after and that they have fun.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children look forward to attending the club. Staff use planning well to ensure activities are different and stimulating for children's range of needs and interests. For example, children are encouraged to draw a coat of arms and experiment blowing paint through straws to create abstract pictures. Younger children enjoy playing with resources in the role-play area, while others make constructions from blocks. Staff listen to what children enjoy doing. Staff help children to recognise different cultures and beliefs in their planning of activities. For example, children use their 'cultural board' to share information and learn about the wider world.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff start the afternoon by having a group discussion with children on such topics as feelings, safety, and the activities planned for the day. This helps children to decide how to plan their time. Children are supported well by a key person, who ensures they settle and have support during their early days of starting at the club. This helps to develop children's confidence and support their well-being. Children are keen to participate in activities, such as team games outdoors. They eagerly raise their hands to join in, and staff organise and participate well in highly energetic running games. For example, children dodge and run to avoid being caught. When the rain starts, staff allow the fun to continue in the large school hall. This helps to keep children physically fit and complements their awareness of keeping healthy.
