The provision is good

n The provider, who is also the manager, and the practitioner team have worked hard to secure improvements in the provision since the last inspection. They regularly review how the club operates and take action to promote continuous improvement. Records relating to medication and attendance now ensure children's safety and welfare are assured. n The provider and the practitioner team are experienced and well qualified. They understand how children learn through play in this type of provision. Practitioners create a positive and welcoming environment. Children are happy, have fun and settle quickly to activities. n Practitioners are friendly, caring and attentive. They have a very warm rapport with the children and they know them well. This supports children's emotional well-being successfully. n Partnerships with parents are good. A good range of information is shared and this helps ensure children's needs are met. Parents speak highly about the club and say

their children look forward to attending. They are very complimentary about the provider, practitioner team and the wide range of activities provided.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

n Practitioners do not obtain enough information from the host school so that they can offer a fully consistent approach and complement children's learning even further. n At times, noise levels in the room become high and this interrupts children's level of concentration and engagement in activities.

p.1

What the setting needs to do to improve further

To further improve the quality of the early years provision the provider should:

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The provider and the practitioner team are clear about their role in protecting children and keeping them safe. They understand when to take action and the procedure to follow in the event of a concern about children's welfare. Practitioners are also knowledgeable about the wider safeguarding concerns that may have an impact on children's welfare. Children are supervised well and practitioners deploy themselves effectively to ensure children's safety. Recruitment, vetting and ongoing suitability checks are robust to make sure children are cared for by suitable adults. All practitioners undertake a range of training, such as safeguarding, first aid and food safety training to promote children's well-being.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children thoroughly enjoy their time at the club. Practitioners make sure that the broad range of activities provided includes children's interests and ideas. Children make choices about what they would like to play with, and they benefit from the good range of resources available to them. Practitioners interact well with the children as they play alongside them, guiding their play and learning. Children use their imagination in making up their own games in the role-play area. They take on different roles and characters and pretend to make food and drinks. Children express themselves well during art and creative activities. They design their own pictures, and younger children use scissors competently. Children join in enthusiastically, using pens to scratch foil to reveal the colours on their monster fridge magnets. Children use their senses while playing in sand and are fascinated by beads which expand in water. They describe the texture of the

beads as 'cold', 'wet' and 'sloppy'. Practitioners build on children's mathematical and literacy skills well. They encourage them to count, write their names on their work, and join in conversations about their family and important events.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children show good levels of confidence. They are happy and talk freely and enthusiastically to practitioners and visitors about what they are doing and enjoy. Children learn about healthy lifestyles. Breakfast and snacks provided for them are nutritious and well balanced. Children follow good hygiene routines and wash their hands before eating. All children like to spend time outdoors and say they like playing football. Practitioners are good role models and manage children's behaviour well. Any issues that arise are dealt with in a sensitive way to help children understand how they can make better choices. Children take turns, share and develop positive relationships with their peers. Children gain a good understanding of how to keep themselves safe. They know the rules relating to outdoor play and the boundaries in place to keep them safe. Children are involved in the emergency evacuation procedures, and practitioners

talk to them about using equipment in a safe way. Children have good opportunities to learn about people's similarities and differences. For example, they engage in different activities to learn about festivals from all faiths and religions.
