p.1

The provision is good

n Leaders and staff have built strong professional relationships with the headteacher at the host school to support children's care and learning to a good level. n Leaders monitor staff performance well and effectively support the lead play worker in her new role. They meet with staff regularly to identify strengths and areas for improvement, where underperformance is tackled swiftly. n All children enjoy playing group games together, indoors and outdoors. For example, older children thoroughly enjoy playing dodge ball. They are extremely motivated and keen to join in. n The staff team has high expectations for all children. Children behave well, listen carefully and show respect to others as they play team games together. n Children's healthy lifestyles are supported well. For example, all children devour a healthy meal at teatime and they have plenty of fresh air as they play energetically outdoors.

p.1

It is not yet outstanding because:

n Staff do not always recognise good opportunities that arise to encourage children to develop their self-help skills further, particularly during teatime. n On occasion, some staff do not make good use of opportunities that arise to interact with children to extend their speaking and listening skills.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Leaders and staff follow robust safeguarding procedures, and they have a good understanding of what to do if they have a concern about a child's welfare. The premises are safe and staff are deployed effectively, supervising children closely. A well-established programme of professional development helps all staff to improve their knowledge and skills to further improve play opportunities for children. Staff effectively exchange information with teaching staff at the host school, which helps them to support children's care and learning to a good level. Effective self-evaluation leads to well-targeted improvements and includes the views of children, parents and staff. For example, following recent feedback from parents and children, teatime menus now include a variety of hot meals. This shows that their views are valued and acted on.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff enthusiastically welcome children to the club and the key person takes care to ensure that younger children settle when they first arrive. Staff effectively plan a variety of activities to help all children engage in play experiences. For example, children skilfully build with construction, play board games together and look at a range of books with staff. Staff confidently give clear explanation, explore ideas and demonstrate to help children develop their understanding and skills. Children eagerly engage in activities and cooperate well. For example, younger children concentrate as they expertly create colourful paper fish from a range of arts and crafts materials. Staff support children who have special educational needs and/or disabilities well. They effectively work in partnership with teaching staff to help all children join in and have fun.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The acting lead play worker and staff work very well together as a team. They are courteous and respectful of each other and children. They are good role models who are sensitive to the needs of all children. Staff praise children for their efforts and skilfully encourage them to join in. Children develop positive attitudes to each other, and staff encourage an inclusive approach where everyone is treated with equal respect. Children show consideration for others as they play team games together. Staff successfully support children's emotional well-being and they help them to learn how to stay safe as they play. Staff work well in partnership with parents so that children receive all the support they need. Parents say they are very happy with the care of their children and that staff communicate extremely well with them and with teaching staff. This helps to provide a coordinated approach to children's care and learning. All children enjoy their
