This provision is good

 Staff talk to parents daily when they collect their children and pass on messages from the school about children's care needs. Parents are very complimentary of the care children receive in the club. They say that their children are happy and they like the good range of activities offered to children during the school holidays.  Children show that they have good relationships with staff. Many children know the staff already when they start. This is because most staff also work at the club's sister nursery that many children attend before starting school. This helps children to settle quickly.  Children approach staff confidently and are keen to tell them about their school day. Staff listen carefully to children and value their thoughts, wishes and opinions. Children demonstrate that they are emotionally secure.  Staff provide a wide range of enjoyable activities, based on children's individual

interests. They find out about what they are learning at school and complement this in the club. This helps children to build on the skills they learn during the day.

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Although the manager has begun to monitor staff's work with children, she does not focus sharply on helping staff to raise the quality of their practice to a higher level.  Staff do not make the most of opportunities to help children to support their self-care skills and personal hygiene.

She looked at relevant documentation and evidence of the suitability of staff working in the club.  The inspector spoke to a number of parents during the inspection and took account of their views.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The manager and staff keep their knowledge of child protection up to date, for example, by attending training courses. They know the signs that may suggest a child is at significant risk of harm. Staff talk confidently about the procedure they will follow if they have any concerns about a child's welfare. They complete risk assessments prior to children arriving and remove any identified hazards. Staff regularly count children when they collect them from the host school. They provide them with high- visibility vests to wear so they can be easily seen. This helps to keep children safe. The manager gathers the view of parents, staff and children in her self-evaluation of the club. As a result, children requested a room to complete homework. The manager liaised with the host school to provide a quiet area that children can use.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff get to know children well when they first start and find out about their interests. They gather information from parents about children's hobbies and achievements at home and complement this in the club. Children explore and investigate through creative play. They fetch water and add this to a puddle outdoors. Staff provide them with glitter, containers, jugs and pipettes for children to use and learn about cause and effect. Children tell staff they are mixing glitter and water to 'make the fairies go away'. This demonstrates children's imagination. Staff ask them a good range of open-ended questions to help children to think and talk about what they are doing. Children are very sociable and enjoy playing with others. They work together to stretch a large spring on the floor. They work as a team to hold it steady as one child jumps over it. Children enjoy being physically active. They enjoy learning about technology and take it in turns to use

an electronic device. Children look at the numbers on a clock to see when it is their turn, demonstrating positive behaviour. Staff provide each child with a scrapbook that includes information about their likes, interests and children's drawings. They set targets for each child to work on, complementing the learning experiences they receive at school. This helps children to have a sense of belonging in the club.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff encourage children to take an active part in establishing the rules and boundaries of the club. This helps children to know what is expected of them. Children say that they have to 'be nice and try to help people'. Staff constantly encourage children to make choices in their play, such as whether they want to play indoors or outdoors. They provide children with a range of healthy snacks. Children are encouraged to be independent. They make their own sandwiches and grate cheese. Children wash cups and bowls after eating. Staff talk to children about how to keep themselves safe. For example, they talk to them about the dangers when using an oven.
