p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff understand the procedures they must follow if they are concerned about a child's welfare and are vigilant in their practice. For example, they check the identification of all visitors. Staff complete daily safety checks of the environment to ensure that any potential risks are identified and removed prior to children attending. Staff regularly evaluate the service they provide and identify areas that they could develop further. Staff are supported through inductions and supervision meetings. They attend training which has a positive impact on the quality of the provision. For example, staff have attended training on outdoor playground games.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff build positive relationships with children and understand their needs and current interests well. Activities complement learning offered in school and adapt to different events throughout the year. For example, children enjoy using paint, glitter and a variety of brushes to make their own firework pictures. Children are actively encouraged to be involved in planning activities. For example, children discuss the activities and food they would like to try as part of Halloween week. Children initiate their own play and interact well alongside other children of different ages. Staff initiate discussion, role model how to use resources and support children develop new skills. Children enjoy a range of activities. For example, they enjoy using construction sets, racing on micro scooters outside and accessing computers.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff create a warm and relaxed environment where children have fun and relax. Staff offer settling-in visits for children and ask them about their favourite interests, so they can plan activities children will enjoy. Staff support children's emotional well-being. For example, they talk with children if they have concerns and allow them to sleep if they are tired. Children's behaviour is very good. They listen carefully to staff and are respectful towards one another. Staff use initiatives, such as 'star of the week', to promote positive behaviour. Healthy lifestyles are promoted through healthy snacks and daily access to the outdoors. Children build their independence through helping staff and being actively involved in routines, such as preparing snack. Children enjoy going to the club.
