Inspection activities

 The inspector had a tour of the premises. She observed, listened to and talked with children as they played.  The inspector discussed with the manager about staff supervision and how she evaluates the effectiveness of the provision.  The inspector reviewed a selection of documentation, including records of children and procedures relating to safeguarding and staff suitability for their roles.  The inspector spoke to staff and took account of the views of parents.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. The management team is vigilant in their vetting of staff to help ensure their suitability. All staff complete induction training and regularly update their knowledge of safeguarding. They understand the signs that would raise concerns about a child's welfare and know how to take appropriate action to help keep children safe. Staff benefit from professional development opportunities that support them in their role, such as courses on child development. They regularly meet to evaluate the club. Staff share ideas for improvement and review the feedback gathered from parents.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children enjoy the calm and relaxing environment where they play alongside their friends and take part in activities that appeal to them. For example, children engage well in group art activities as they create bright pictures of animals, such as cats. Staff engage children well in discussions about topical events and use their ideas to organise meaningful activities. For instance, they use children's suggestions of what gifts they can make for Mother's Day. Children chose to make boxes with their individual designs as a unique present for their mothers. Parents are happy with the service the club provides. They are aware what their children can do and staff share information with them each day at collection time.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children settle well when they start at the club. They follow the rules and expectations of the club well. Staff talk to children about their day at school and shape the routine based on children's needs and wishes. For example, children who are tired after their day at school choose to relax and rest in a comfortable area. Whereas, other children opt to play outside. They enjoy activities, such as chasing each other or balancing on stepping stones and ropes. This promotes children's ability to manage risks while engaging in healthy exercise. Children actively participate in daily routines, such as the preparation of food for mealtimes. They help clear away activities. Children have good social skills and they enjoy mealtimes where they eat together.
