The provision is inadequate

n The manager and staff do not have up-to-date training on safeguarding matters to understand their responsibility to safeguard children. This significantly compromises children's safety and well-being. In addition, the written safeguarding policy is not in line with the guidance of the Local Safeguarding Children Board. n The manager does not have effective arrangements for the supervision of staff, to foster a culture of continuous improvement and to support staff to identify when they need training or professional development. n The manager and staff have not planned the outdoor environment sufficiently well to make sure children who prefer to play and learn outdoors have the same level of opportunity to occupy themselves fully and build on their learning as those who prefer to play inside. n The arrangements for self-evaluation are not good enough to make sure the manager has a clear knowledge of when there are breaches in requirements and when

Inspection activities n The inspector had a tour of the premises with the manager. n The inspector checked evidence of the suitability of all staff. n The inspector spoke to staff and children. She took account of parents' views. n The inspector looked at relevant documentation, including policies and procedures, paediatric first-aid certificates and public liability insurance documents.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

Arrangements for safeguarding are ineffective. The manager, who is also the provider, and staff demonstrate limited knowledge of safeguarding. They do not know how to follow Local Safeguarding Children Board procedures. In addition, these procedures are not reflected in the club's safeguarding policy. However, the manager and staff have updated their knowledge of other relevant safeguarding and childcare matters. For example, they recognise and understand how to tackle instances of discrimination or extremist views and comments. The manager ensures that all staff are suitable to work with children, and regularly checks their ongoing suitability. On occasion, the manager meets with individual staff. However, these opportunities are not used well enough to highlight areas where staff need further development to improve their knowledge and practice. Partnerships with parents are effective. Staff value their feedback and actively

seek their views. The manager and staff fully assess hazards at the club and prior to outdoor activities, to help prevent accidents. Some basic self-evaluation is completed but the arrangements are not robust enough to make sure that the manager is always aware of breaches in requirements and where practice needs to improve.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment requires improvement

Staff know the children well and join them in their play. Indoors, staff provide activities and resources for children of mixed ages. For example, children enthusiastically play snooker and table tennis, and they enjoy a variety of board games. However, less consideration has been given to the outdoor environment. For example, outdoor resources are minimal and only a few children have items to play with, which limits their play and enjoyment. However, staff do interact well with children and develop activities according to children's ages and abilities. These strategies help to keep children engaged in whatever they do.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are inadequate

The manager and staff do not have sufficient knowledge of the statutory requirements for safeguarding and welfare. This has a significant impact on their ability to ensure children's safety and well-being. Children of all ages show self-confidence and independence in whatever they try and can do. Children are offered a selection of nutritional, balanced snacks throughout the day. Staff encourage parents to provide a healthy packed lunch and give children a clear message about eating a healthy diet. Children have ample fresh air and physical exercise. Outings and off-site daily experiences are regularly arranged. For example, children visit the library, swimming pool and the local parks. Staff also use these opportunities to help children develop an understanding of other people and the wider community.
