p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The provider and the management team follow appropriate recruitment procedures and monitor staff ongoing suitability, including through regular checks and individual discussions. Every member of staff completes child protection training to support their safeguarding knowledge. They know what procedures to follow if they have any concerns about a child's safety or welfare. The managers and staff work effectively together as a team and regularly review their setting, to drive continuous improvement. They take into account parents' and children's views in making their decisions. Parents report that children like attending the camp and staff are always warm and welcoming.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff interact with children in a positive way and know when to join in children's activities. They have meaningful discussions and skilfully use questions to help children think for themselves. This also helps children extend their communication skills. Staff enable children to practise their home languages. For example, they sing songs in different languages at greeting time. Staff successfully promote children's social skills and encourage them to participate in group activities. For example, they play ball games, where children say the names of other children. Children benefit from the opportunities to be active throughout the day. They take part in various activities where they run, jump and dance. Activities like these help to help maintain children's good health.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

The managers and staff provide a caring environment, where all children feel valued and included. Staff know all of the children very well, including their dietary requirements and allergies, and meet their individual needs. Staff praise children's achievements, efforts and ideas. This boosts their confidence and self-esteem. Staff ensure children follow good hygiene routines and regularly drink water, which supports children's health. Children develop good independence skills. For example, they make choices in their play and take care of their own needs. Children are very confident and happy while they play on their own or in a group. They learn to be mindful and cooperative with each other, when playing together.
