This provision is good

 Children play in a welcoming, brightly decorated environment. They enjoy good relationships with staff.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff are knowledgeable of the potential signs of harm and neglect. They understand their role in protecting children and the process for sharing their concerns with the relevant agencies. Children's safety is a high priority. Staff take effective steps to identify and minimise potential hazards. Children learn about their own safety and how to use resources and equipment safely. Staff supervise children well. New security systems enable staff to clearly see who has come to collect children before opening the door. Managers follow safe recruitment practices for staff and complete suitability checks. Mandatory training is undertaken to keep staff's knowledge up to date and ensure they are aware of current best practice. Staff's, children's and parents' views help inform the self-evaluation process. Staff review comments and make changes to enhance the provision.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children have lots of fun and enjoy being at the club. They take part in a range of exciting and engaging activities and share their ideas. Staff gather information from children about their interests when they first join the club and use this to plan from the start. Staff discuss younger children's development with teaching staff. This provides a joint approach to supporting children's continued learning. Staff provide a wide variety of activities and resources for children to choose from. Children are very creative. They use their imagination well. They create pictures using various materials and proudly show their work to staff and their peers. They explain what they are making in great detail. Children work in partnership to complete tasks, such as puzzles of varying levels of difficulty, and share their achievements when complete. Children re-enact familiar experiences and use small- world figures in their play. They use various accents as they play, adding a new dimension

to their enjoyment. Children involve staff in their play, drawing on the skills they know staff have. For example, they ask staff to help them to draw animals to decorate with different collage materials.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children's dietary needs are well known and respected. They enjoy healthy snacks and prepare their own foods. Children enjoy talking with staff and their friends while they eat and sit together. They independently access the bathroom and follow good hygiene routines, washing their hands at appropriate times. Staff effectively support children's health and well-being. Children have plenty of opportunities to be active and also have space to sit, relax and complete homework. Staff are positive role models and gently explain to children the importance of sharing and taking turns with the toys. Staff manage children's behaviour well. Clear rules, expectations and boundaries are in place and followed. Staff recognise and praise children's good behaviour and achievements. Children recognise similarities and differences and learn about traditions and cultural events throughout the year. They understand the importance of listening to each other's views
