This provision is good

 The manager regularly evaluates the club environment and play opportunities. For example, she carries out regular observations and seeks the views of parents and children to identify aspects of the provision to develop further. The changes she makes help to keep children motivated to play and have fun during their time at the club.  Children enjoy themselves and behave well at the club. They fully understand the rules and routines and show kindness to others. Children of all ages get on well and play cooperatively together.  Staff build positive relationships with parents, and children benefit from good effective verbal communication. This helps promote continuity of care for children.  Staff offer a good range of activities and experiences. Children enjoy playing and exploring in an environment that staff organise for them to be able to follow their own interests.

It is not yet outstanding because:

 Staff do not consistently support children's understanding of how to keep themselves healthy. They do not monitor children washing their hands well enough to make sure that this practice is consistently embedded naturally into routines.  The supervision of snack does not consistently ensure that younger children get the most from the experience.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The manager maintains good communication with the school to help provide children with consistency in their care and activities. She continually improves the quality of staff practice. For example, she holds regular discussions with staff and observes their practice, helping to develop their effectiveness in working with children. Staff have good opportunities to access training, and the manager supports them to achieve, motivating them to improve their skills. For example, following training, staff have enhanced the opportunities they provide to stimulate children's sensory exploration. Safeguarding is effective. Staff recognise the signs that may cause concern for a child's welfare and know the reporting procedures to follow.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff plan a wide range of stimulating experiences that engages children in play. They listen to children's opinions and allow them to make choices about which activities they take part in. For instance, staff ensure there are resources for children who enjoy creative construction activities. Staff take the time to get to know children and use what they know to plan activities to excite and interest them. Children are given opportunities to learn about festivals from around the world and enjoy exploring culture throughout their play experiences. Staff effectively adapt activities to fully support the varying age and ability of the children who access them. For example, staff provide greater physical challenges for older children during their outdoor games.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children behave well and play cooperatively. They demonstrate a clear understanding of the expectations with regard to sharing and taking turns. Children increase their independence skills. For example, they get ready for the outdoor environment, serve their own food and pour their drinks. Children are confident, happy and demonstrate good social skills. They enjoy reflective discussions about their own personal experiences and explore how they differ from one another. They are constantly praised for their success and this helps to give them a good sense of achievement and increases their confidence. Staff help to support children with their growing awareness of healthy eating. For example, they provide nutritious snacks and engage the children in conversations about healthy food choices.
