Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. All staff understand their responsibility to keep children safe from harm. They have a good understanding of the reporting procedures if they have a concern in relation to the welfare of a child. Staff support children to understand how to keep themselves safe. For example, staff complete a group risk assessment as children arrive so that they understand and adhere to the safety rules of the club. Staff benefit from regular monitoring of their performance. This supports them to provide a safe and happy environment for children and to improve their practice. For example, staff have recently completed training to enhance their knowledge of managing positive behaviour. Partnerships with parents and the school are good. Staff have effective systems in place to ensure that information is passed on to parents. Parents are very happy with the service and speak highly of the staff.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

The well-qualified and experienced staff are committed to providing children with good quality-care and play experiences. Children enjoy group play. For example, they build structures with bricks, draw pictures and role play together. Older children include younger children in their play and support them with daily routines, such as setting the table for tea. Staff engage children in meaningful conversations as they ask them questions to prompt their thinking. For example, they ask children to describe their drawings and listen with great interest. Staff praise children for their achievements. This helps to build their self-confidence.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

All children, including those who have recently joined, arrive at the club happy and excited to play with their friends. They have built positive relationships with staff, who nurture their emotional needs well. Children are polite and well mannered. They listen to adults and their friends. For example, during group time children take turns to share their thoughts and ideas. Children are encouraged to be independent as they set up activities of their choice. Children enjoy their time in the outdoor area and have access to a range of activities that promotes their healthy lifestyles. Staff provide children with a range of healthy and nutritious snacks, such as fresh fruit.
