p.1
The provision is good
n Children of different ages play well together. They enjoy attending the camp and have fun as they join in with various sports and games activities. n Staff are good role models who are well organised and demonstrate new skills with enthusiasm, which helps children to settle quickly and to understand expectations. n Children behave well, listen carefully overall and show respect to others. n Leaders, managers and staff follow robust safeguarding procedures and have a good understanding of what to do if they have concerns about children's welfare. The premises are safe and staff supervise children closely. n Leaders and managers provide many opportunities for staff to develop their skills, knowledge and qualifications to improve play opportunities for children further.
p.1
It is not yet outstanding because:
n At times, staff expect the youngest children to follow lengthy instructions and wait for extended periods for their turn, which reduces their engagement in activities and choices about how they play.

What the setting needs to do to improve further

p.2
Effectiveness of leadership and management is good
Safeguarding is effective. Leaders and managers ensure that staff are confident about their responsibilities to help protect children. They keep staff up to date with relevant information, for example, through training to help them identify children at risk from extreme behaviours and views. The owner/manager reflects on practice thoughtfully, taking account of the views of staff, parents and children to identify areas for further improvement. Feedback from parents and children is very positive and demonstrates that children have lots of fun in the camp. The owner/manager supports the well-qualified staff team to further their professional development and they have access to a wide range of training opportunities.
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
Staff welcome children warmly to the camp and take care to ensure that younger children feel settled and comfortable. They provide extra support for younger children to join in with, and understand the purpose of, activities. This approach works well most of the time. Younger children enjoy the company of older children and feel confident enough to express their ideas and thoughts. They engage well in activities overall and cooperate readily. For example, children concentrate well as they play memory games and join in with physical activities that require them to follow a set of rules. Staff use good interactions to encourage children's participation and ideas, and their enthusiasm helps children respond well to challenges. The owner/manager and staff work well with parents and local schools to share information about children's individual needs to encourage consistency in their care.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
Children demonstrate that they feel happy and relaxed in the camp. They form positive relationships with staff and they cooperate well with rules and expectations. For example, they work effectively with each other during team games. Children learn about the importance of healthy lifestyles, such as being active and eating healthily. They learn to stay safe and how to respond to any concerns, such as what to do in the event of an emergency evacuation. Children develop positive attitudes to each other, and staff encourage an inclusive approach where everyone is treated equally.
