The manager has formed strong links with the local authority and supports other professionals with aspects of early years training. The well-qualified practitioners follow training pathways that measure and recognise their continuing progress in their professional development.

The manager uses his strong links with school teachers to ensure that children's individual needs are met very well at the club.

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is outstanding

Staff skilfully plan engaging experiences that are linked closely to what children need to learn next. They adapt the planning to take account of children's play preferences, their choices and their interests. A superb range of materials is provided. Staff help children to develop their imagination and understanding of mathematical concepts. Younger children demonstrate a very good understanding of number and memory skills. For example, staff support a child as he confidently names the different types of dinosaurs and successfully counts to 15 when lining them all up on the carpet. Younger children practise letter formation, using special threading pens and mats. This enhances their small-muscle skills and dexterity, ready for their next stage of learning. Staff encourage children to work together to create salt dough hearts, using paints and glitter. Children mix red, pink and white paints and delight in watching how the colours change. Staff discuss the shades of

Staff talk to children with respect and encourage them to engage in tasks, such as tidying away toys and helping to set up for new activities. Children are happy and settle quickly into the routines of the club. Staff place children's physical and emotional well-being at the heart of all they do. Children's independence is supported exceptionally well. They are given opportunities to evaluate the club and their ideas are shared and considered. Children pour their own drinks and put on their own coats for outdoor play. They remind each other to wash their hands before eating. They are developing an excellent awareness of healthy lifestyles.
