This provision is good

 Leaders and staff are extremely dedicated and provide good-quality care for children. They are calm, nurturing and provide a welcoming environment for children to learn.  Children form very close relationships with staff. They confidently seek them out to join in their play and this strongly supports children's excellent self-esteem and emotional well-being.  Leaders and staff place high priority on promoting children's communication and language skills. For example, staff encourage all children to discuss and share their day's experiences when they arrive at the setting.  Children enjoy their time at the club and their behaviour is excellent. Staff are good role models and this helps children to learn how to be considerate and respectful of each other. Staff have established strong partnerships with parents and other providers.  Children show a high level of independence. For example, they are free to select the

It is not yet outstanding because:

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Leaders and staff work effectively as a strong team to provide good-quality care to children. Safeguarding is effective. Staff have a good understanding of the procedures to follow if they have a concern about a child's welfare. Leaders are clear about their responsibility for safe recruitment practices. For example, all staff are checked for suitability and all are inducted about their roles and responsibilities. The leadership team reflects on the service provided. There are effective systems for monitoring staff performance. For example, staff receive good support through regular discussions where they share good practice or identify areas for further improvement. Staff are committed to access training that benefits children. For example, staff have completed training in playwork, which has enhanced children's independence when making choices in play.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff are experienced, well qualified and understand how children learn. They use their collective experiences, knowledge and understanding to plan a range of stimulating experiences that children enjoy. Staff provide activities which are appropriately challenging, motivating and have a strong emphasis on making learning meaningful. Children's progress is monitored through observations, work samples and notations recorded in their individual learning files. For example, staff focused on children's developmental needs and their interests in vehicles to support their mathematics and communication skills. Children are happy attending the provision. They are motivated, demonstrate a positive approach to learning and make good progress. For example, children worked cooperatively with each other and confidently shared how they developed their design ideas for their shopping bags. Staff provide good opportunities for children to

learn about a wide range of cultural festivals and events within their community.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Leaders and staff share strong, positive partnerships with parents. Parents are extremely satisfied with the care their children receive. The very good staff relationships with parents and children support ease of transition from school to the setting and very high levels of confidence and self-esteem for children. Children show exemplary behaviour. For example, they entered the setting extremely quietly, in an orderly manner, and politely said 'hello', without prompting. Children are happy, self-assured, and exceptionally confident and secure. They are highly respectful and helpful towards each other. For example, older children help the younger children by sharing resources and including them in their games. Children follow excellent hygiene routines and develop healthy practices. For example, they know to wash their hands before they eat and the benefits of healthy eating and exercise. Staff provide nutritious snacks and unique opportunities for children
