This provision is good

 Children enter the club happily and make good friendships. Staff greet parents and children each day. They ensure parents register children's attendance. Children separate well from their parents and choose what they want to play with.  Staff plan activities that take place indoors and outside effectively.

p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff are knowledgeable of the signs that may indicate children are at risk from harm and neglect. They understand the local safeguarding referral procedures. Recruitment procedures are secure and systems for monitoring staff's performance are continually developing through the introduction of supervision and peer observations. These, alongside professional development opportunities, enhance staff's performance. Staff frequently meet together to plan and evaluate the activities. Children's safety is a priority. Staff take effective steps to minimise potential hazards within the environment. Up-to-date policies and procedures inform parents about the service provided and reflect the club's ethos of high-quality care effectively.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children make choices throughout the day. Resources are plentiful and children share and take turns through play. For example, children learn to share electronic equipment and games so that all of them have opportunities to play. Children enjoy being creative and use a wide range of materials. They follow simple instructions, for example, while making their own baskets with card. Staff encourage children to recognise different colours and shapes during activities. Children show good dexterity using small tools, such as pencils, crayons and scissors. These also support children to use their left or right hand, whichever is preferred. Younger children enjoy role play and re-enact familiar experiences. They spend time caring for the dolls and use buggies to take them for walks. Children show high levels of concentration as they use construction materials. For example, children enjoy creating their own models and they add wheels to make them move across the

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff encourage parents to share as much information as possible about their child to ensure their needs are met effectively throughout the day. Children show through their behaviour that they feel safe and secure in the club. Staff and children talk each day about expectations, safety and the evacuation procedure in the event of an emergency. Children access fresh drinking water throughout the day and parents provide packed lunches each day. Staff ensure they are fully informed of any dietary and medical needs. Children benefit from plenty of fresh air and exercise and engage in a wide variety of activities outdoors, including mission impossible and den building. Staff praise children's good behaviour and recognise their efforts and achievements. They build children's self- esteem and confidence well. Children learn about different traditions and celebrations throughout the year, supporting their awareness of diversity and the wider world.
