The provision is good

n The management team constantly reflects on the service provided at the camp and incorporates the views of parents and children, to improve continually.

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The management team ensures that staff are confident in their understanding of the signs and symptoms which may give cause for concern about a child's welfare. Staff have completed updates about how to identify any children who may be at risk of exposure to extreme ideas or behaviours. The management team supports the professional development of staff, for example, through regular supervisions, training and meetings. Staff use their training effectively to help them keep children safe. Staff carry out regular risk assessments throughout the day and respond quickly and effectively to any potential hazards.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide a good balance of physical and creative activities. Children independently access a range of resources which they can incorporate into their play. Staff complement the skills and learning children gain in school. For example, children delight in using remote-controlled cars, which help to develop their understanding of technology. They become engrossed in building rockets and houses using large construction resources. Children benefit from exploratory activities, for example, as they become captivated by mixing jelly, sand and cornflour together. They are self-motivated and keen to share their ideas and thoughts. Staff provide them with time to think and express themselves in their own words. Children demonstrate effective team-working skills as they design obstacle courses and excitedly demonstrate how they move around them. They delight in running, jumping, balancing and throwing.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff are skilled at supporting children in taking part in activities and are very aware of the children's individual needs. They work closely with parents to maintain consistent strategies to support children's emotional well-being. This particularly supports children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities. Staff have devised different ways to involve children in contributing to the routines of the day. For example, children enjoy using the visual timetables staff have introduced. Children are confident in their relationships with staff and turn to them for help and support, if needed. Staff carefully nurture children's understanding of leading a healthy lifestyle. Children understand how to keep each other well. For instance, they eagerly talk about allergies and how they do not share food.
