Effectiveness of the leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The manager understands her responsibility to protect children and implements effective policies and procedures to ensure their welfare. She deploys staff well to ensure ratio requirements are effectively met and children are well supervised and safe. The manager ensures staff's suitability, following robust recruitment procedures to support children's well-being. Staff know how to recognise and report any signs that indicate a child may be at risk of harm. The manager provides good opportunities for staff to develop their knowledge and skills, such as through thorough inductions and regular staff meetings. Staff are well qualified to support children's well-being. For instance, they attend first-aid training, know how to deal with any accidents and injuries, and provide good levels of care.
