This provision is good

 Staff plan a good range of physical activities that provides children with good challenge and promotes their good health. For example, boys and girls show great energy and enthusiasm while taking part in football activities.  Children listen attentively and eagerly follow staff instructions during all activities, for example, while playing team games. Children thoroughly enjoy copying what staff and older children can do. For example, they enthusiastically use a range of movements while dancing to music.  Children are well behaved. They have a good understanding of the club rules and their own safety. For example, they say they have to stay within sight of a coach at all times. Staff risk assess the premises and activities effectively to reduce any hazards and keep children safe. For instance, in wet weather, children are not allowed to use wooden climbing apparatus.  The club manager has a good knowledge and understanding of his role and

responsibilities. He is a positive role model for staff.

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Sometimes, staff miss opportunities to support some children who are less confident, for example, to build their social skills, confidence and interaction with other children.  Occasionally, managers do not evaluate effectively enough to continuously improve some activities for children to make choices and explore their creativity.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. There are sufficient staff employed to ensure the safety and welfare of children. Staff have a good knowledge of child protection policies and procedures. The staff working at the club have appropriate playwork experience. Senior staff monitor and evaluate most aspects of practice effectively. Overall, staff are coached and supported well. All staff regularly complete safeguarding and paediatric first-aid training. They also complete level 2 multi-skills training, which supports them to teach children sports skills. Staff with specialist sports skills are asked to present sessions to other staff. This enables all staff to provide the same activities for children effectively, for example, rugby, gymnastics, dance and cricket. Staff establish effective communication with parents and the school where the club is based to meet children’s individual needs.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The manager and staff confidently lead group activities. They provide lots of opportunity for children to play outdoors and be active. Children show great determination during their play. For example, they independently walk along low-level wooden beams and chains on climbing apparatus. Staff set challenges that develop children’s skills effectively, for example, during games of football and while finding and using different coloured goals in the outdoor play area. Staff encourage children to try new activities. For example, children do yoga and learn a variety of movements, including self-defence techniques. Children make posters which identify what they like about the club. They say they like the funny coaches, meeting new friends and the sports activities.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children are provided with a welcoming and stimulating environment that motivates them to play. Staff quickly get to know the children and support them effectively to settle and feel secure. During daily group discussions, the manager introduces the children to every member of staff. He tells them that they can talk to them at any time. When activities change, staff clearly explain to children what is going to happen next. They encourage children to identify and talk about their feelings throughout the day. Staff act as positive role models for children to copy. They communicate with children in a confident and respectful way at all times and encourage children to work as a team. Most children form close friendships and the older children often help the younger children during activities. Children learn to do things for themselves. For example, they independently find their packed lunchbox at mealtimes. Staff regularly remind children to drink water during

physical activities so they keep hydrated.
