p.1
It is not yet outstanding because:
n At times, staff intervene too soon when children are thinking about how to answer questions they have been asked. n Staff do not make the most of opportunities to seek children's views on the effectiveness of the club to further influence planning or evaluation of the activities provided.

p.2
Effectiveness of leadership and management is good
The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff are aware of their roles and responsibilities to help ensure children's welfare is protected. They attend child protection training to help ensure that their knowledge is up to date. Staff have a secure understanding of the procedures to follow if they are concerned about children's welfare. The provider follows safe recruitment procedures. Ongoing discussions and appraisals are completed to support staff in their roles. Senior management ensure that new staff implement all the club's procedures. They complete regular supervision meetings with staff to identify their ongoing training needs. Staff supervise children well and ensure that all areas and resources used by children are suitable for them.
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
Children are warmly greeted by the staff. They show a genuine interest in them and play alongside them. For example, children have fun playing board games and they problem solve together during the completion of jigsaw puzzles. Staff praise children which helps to promote their self-esteem. Children help themselves to the resources set out for them. They enjoy exploring the imaginative play equipment and discuss each other's roles, such as pretending to be a hairdresser. Children gain a range of skills to complement their learning at school. For instance, they focus on developing their literacy and creative skills. Children enjoy drawing and making items of their own choice. They confidently use tools, such as scissors, colouring pens and the variety of materials available for them.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
Staff help children to feel secure and settled. For instance, new children are provided with a buddy to help them become familiar with the routine of the club. This helps them to develop a sense of belonging. Staff effectively obtain information from parents about children's interests and needs before they start. They continually have discussions about their children's day. Staff promote children's independence and their good health. They are very aware of children's individual dietary needs and provide nutritious options for their snack. Children have opportunities to practise their physical skills and to gain fresh air. For example, they enjoy playing in the enclosed school grounds and joining in with team games. Children demonstrate that they are aware about how to keep themselves safe. For example, they remind each other not to run indoors as they might hurt themselves or others. Godalming, 2 October 2018 4 of 5
