p.2

Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. All staff receive regular child protection training, including identifying signs of potential radicalisation. The manager undertakes a regular audit to help ensure staff's knowledge and understanding of safeguarding is robust, and that policies are up to date. The effective deployment of staff ensures the good supervision of children throughout the sessions. Priorities for future development of the club reflect the views of parents and staff. The manager supports the development of staff performance well, such as through the provision of training and mentoring. For example, staff have recently made good use of training to develop strategies for managing children's behaviour and emotional well-being.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide good opportunities for children to read books, or create their own games and activities. For instance, children enjoy playing in the quiet reading area and telling stories with their friends. Staff gather useful information from parents about children's interests. They use this knowledge well to plan future activities and develop children's self- confidence. For example, staff encourage children who are shy or cautious in their play to join in group games, or complete construction and other games together. Staff help children to persist and to complete interesting and unusual tasks. For example, they make their own paint from different substances, and carefully create attractive designs. Staff provide children with good opportunities to relax, such as with an interesting book or video, at the end of the busy school day.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children learn to play safely and take responsibility for their own behaviour. They are tolerant of the needs of others and share their toys well. Staff establish positive relationships with children from the time they first start. Parents comment that their children really enjoy being at the club, and that they rarely want to go home at the end of the session. Staff promote children's knowledge and understanding of good hygiene and healthy eating. For instance, they help children to make healthy choices at snack times. Staff support children to develop a positive awareness of the lives of others and their different needs and cultures. For example, children participate in activities linked to global celebrations or festivals, such as the Chinese New Year, Saints' days and several charity events.
