p.1

The provision is good

n The staff have a strong understanding of the procedures for safeguarding children, which they use to protect children from harm. n Staff have fully established levels of communication with the on-site school and with parents, which help to promote a continuous approach to children's development and care. n Staff teach children about the importance of a healthy diet. For example, children learn about food that is good for them and talk about how drinking water and daily exercise keep them strong. n Managers are very successful in recruiting and retaining highly suitable staff, who promote the children's learning and behaviour to a good level. n Parents praise the friendly, enjoyable provision and enthusiastically express how much the children love to attend.

What the setting needs to do to improve further

Inspection activities n The inspector observed the quality of teaching and resources during indoor activities and assessed the impact this has on children's learning and well-being. n The inspector held a meeting with the organisation's nominated person and the manager of the club. She looked at relevant documentation and evidence of the suitability of staff working in the after-school club. n The inspector spoke to a small selection of parents, children and staff during the inspection and took account of their views.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The management team demonstrates a good understanding of the welfare requirements of the early years foundation stage. The staff implement rigorous risk assessment procedures and they are effective in minimising accidents and in keeping children safe, such as storing children's medication in the nearby school office. Very good systems ensure the security of the premises, so that children are unable to leave unsupervised. Management and staff attend regular child protection training that is appropriate to their level of responsibility. The manager has strong procedures for monitoring staff performance and supporting professional development needs, such as a recent meeting on behaviour management.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children enthusiastically engage in a balance of adult-supported and self-chosen activities. For example, children showed good motivation in the indoor throw-the-ball game. Staff plan a range of activities through the week to involve the children and develop their knowledge and skills. For example, children made firework art pictures from a variety of craft materials. During such activities, staff skilfully ask deeper questions and sensitively support children to develop their critical thinking. For example, children created models with moving parts and staff extended their ideas. However, opportunities for children's choice are limited because adults mostly plan activities that are specific. For example, a few girls showed an interest in the ball games.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children arrive at the club full of energy. High levels of comfort and support are provided to help younger children settle and adjust to an extended day. Important to this is the well-established partnership with the children's teaching staff and parents. This enables sharing of information about children's needs and learning so that the children benefit from continued care. Staff support children to develop their confidence and independence. They use positive praise consistently and provide clear boundaries and expectations for good behaviour. The older children inspire and care for the younger children, for example, to demonstrate how to kick a ball and score a goal. Tea time is very sociable and well organised to enable children to make independent choices and serve themselves. Children have healthy appetites as they enjoy the 'delicious salad', fruit and savoury snacks.
