Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff receive training on child protection issues and can confidently recognise signs of abuse. Accident and medication forms are completed appropriately. The manager is a good role model. She works alongside staff and offers them coaching and support to enhance children's learning and development further. Staff work well with parents to find out about the needs of children and have regular discussions with them. Parents speak highly of the club and comment on the friendly approach from all staff. The manager evaluates learning gained from training and cascades this information to the staff team. This helps to promote a consistent approach to behaviour management. The views of children are evaluated and considered.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide a wide range of enjoyable and exciting learning experiences. Staff listen to children's ideas and plan interesting activities. Staff provide children with a wide range of opportunities to learn about different cultures and the world around them, such as during creative activities. For example, children make an abundance of Chinese crafts during Chinese New Year and taste and compare different foods. Children's language and communication skills are promoted well. Staff engage children in meaningful conversations and use effective questioning to support them to solve problems and think as they play. Children test out their own ideas during outdoor play and enjoy building an obstacle course with plastic hula hoops and cones. They use their imaginary skills well as they combine construction blocks to create models. Staff help children to practise their physical skills, such as cutting with scissors to create Easter pictures and shaping play dough with

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff are friendly and courteous role models and they support children to play well together and develop their friendships. Consistent routines mean that children know what behaviour is expected. Children with allergies to certain foods are kept safe because important information is shared effectively. Children are taught to recognise and respect the differences between themselves and others in a variety of ways. Staff give plenty of praise as they play, this helps to promote their levels of self-esteem. They talk to children with respect and encourage them to engage in sessions, such as tidying away toys and helping set up for new activities. Children's independence is supported well. They are encouraged to put on their own coats for outdoor play and to pour their own drinks at snack time. Children are happy and settle quickly into the routines of the club.
