Effectiveness of the leadership and management is outstanding

Safeguarding is effective. Staff are fully aware of their responsibilities and the procedures to follow to help keep children safe. They meticulously follow policies and procedures and have a thorough knowledge of these to underpin the excellent practice. The manager has a thorough knowledge of the skills and expertise within the staff team. She uses rigorous systems to support staff. For example, she observes their practices, offers constructive feedback and makes full use of regular supervisory meetings to identify ways to extend their skills even further. Staff are keen to continually develop their excellent knowledge, such as by embarking on higher qualification levels. They work in exceptionally close partnership with other professionals. This adds greatly to the quality of care and to children's enjoyment.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff are extremely skilled at enabling children of all ages and abilities to have fun and to learn through a wide range of activities and experiences. For example, children very enthusiastically join in computer games, film club, arts and crafts, and football. Children also thoroughly enjoy activities outdoors, such as riding bicycles, playing skittles and football. The manager recognises the potential to enhance the range of outdoor experiences even further. Children's behaviour is excellent and they are very good at taking turns. Staff interact exceptionally well with children and expertly expand and develop activities according to children's ages and abilities. These highly successful strategies help to ensure children are excited, enthused and engaged in whatever they do.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff create a culture of support and continuously strive to have an exceptionally positive impact on all children. Highly effective self-evaluation takes into account the views of children and parents and helps staff to set targets for younger children to support their further development. Parents say they are tremendously happy with the club. Staff provide children with stability as they work extremely well with teachers at the school. Children of mixed ages and abilities confidently and independently help themselves to resources. They have an exceptional awareness of how to keep themselves safe and healthy. For example, children develop an understanding of eating healthily as the club offers an extremely healthy snack every day.
