This provision is good

 The provider, manager and staff team show a high level of enthusiasm for their roles. There is a continuous drive to maintain good levels of care and enjoyment for all children. They demonstrate a very good commitment to their role, and hold high expectations for the club and the children who attend.  The well-qualified staff team has a good knowledge and understanding of how young children learn through play.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

This is a very effectively managed out-of-school club and team work is successful. The enthusiastic staff team ensures that children enjoy their time at the club after their busy day at school. Arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Managers and staff have a clear understanding of their role in safeguarding children. They are confident about the procedures to follow in the event of a concern about a child in their care. Staff recruitment is robust to ensure that those working with children are suitable to do so. Staff supervise children well. They are vigilant at arrival and collection times, and the premises are secure. Partnerships with parents work well. Parents spoken to at the time of the inspection were very complimentary about the staff team. They say their children are very happy and safe at the club.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children arrive in good spirits and confidently share information with staff about their school day. Staff provide children with a good variety of activities and help them explore their ideas. Activities meet children's needs and complement the learning taking place in school. Staff's skilled interactions and observations of the children has a good impact on children's enjoyment and achievement. Younger children listen attentively to stories and are confident speakers, asking questions about the story. Role play is very popular and children use their imaginations well as they pretend to be vets looking after the pets. Children use their senses when playing with a cornflour and water mixture. They observe the changes taking place as they add more water and food colouring. Children talk about how the mixture feels and use a range of tools to make marks and write their names. They talk about the beach they have created and how the marks made using a fork

resemble waves. Children take part in activities to promote mathematical skills, such as cooking and they weigh and measure ingredients while making cakes and cookies.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children are happy, safe and well cared for. They build good friendships with children of all ages and older children enjoy helping younger children during activities. Staff build children's confidence and self-esteem through praise and encouragement. Younger children have settled well into the group and staff ensure they feel safe and secure. They give them plenty of attention, help them understand the routine and promote their independence. This supports their emotional well-being very effectively. Staff are very positive role models and speak to children respectfully. Children behave very well, they are polite, use good manners and are kind to each other. Children learn how to keep themselves safe as they play, and staff promote their health and physical development well. They have good opportunities for children to move freely indoors and outdoors and enjoy healthy snacks. Children begin to learn about the needs of others and diversity as

they take part in activities, and learn about about different customs, festivals and celebrations.
