p.2
Effectiveness of leadership and management is good
Safeguarding is effective. The provider follows robust procedures when they recruit new staff and ensure that all staff have regular safeguarding and child protection training. Staff are sufficiently alert to the signs and symptoms that would cause them concern and the procedures they must follow to protect children's welfare. They are aware of their duty to prevent and protect children from exposure to situations that may put them at significant risk of harm. The staff team has built close links with the school that children attend to help complement their learning. Generally, the quality manager of the club undertakes regular audits to check how well the provision meets the needs of children attending. In addition, staff regularly liaise with class teachers to discuss which children will need additional support to help meet their needs. The staff team effectively seeks and acts on the views of parents and children to help improve the range of
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
Staff provide a welcoming environment where children are free to choose from suitable resources. They regularly observe children's play and provide activities to extend on their interests. For example, staff are aware that children enjoy taking part in creative activities and therefore provide creative media daily for children to build on their imaginative and creative skills. Overall, staff interact positively with children and constantly praise and celebrate their achievements to help boost their confidence and self-esteem. For example, staff encourage young children to play with older children and give them the support they need while playing games outdoors. Staff organise the play areas well. They plan team games to help children learn to wait and take turns, as well as developing their listening and attention skills. Staff engage in casual conversations with children during play and mealtimes to help build on their vocabulary.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
Children feel safe and secure in the club, and are confident to share their views and concerns. For example, on the day of the inspection, children told inspector that they enjoy attending the club because they have a variety of games to choose from and have made new friends. Children follow familiar daily routines that help them to take care of their belongings. For example, younger children know that they must put their bags and coats in the designated area to help prevent others from tripping over them. Staff are quick to address unwanted behaviour and give children clear rules and expectations for behaviour to follow. This helps children to learn what is expected of them. Children benefit from eating healthy snacks and having regular access to outdoor play to help support their physical well-being.
