Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective. Staff are aware of the procedures to follow if they have concerns about a child's welfare. They monitor children's safety well. Children learn to understand potential risks as staff offer clear safety explanations. The views of parents, children and staff are valued. The provider considers their comments when evaluating the quality of the service and uses their feedback to plan and make positive improvements. Staff have opportunities to review their practice. Together with the provider, they identify their professional development needs and plan training to enhance and strengthen their skills and practice.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide an inviting environment and a wide range of well-organised activities. Indoors, children enjoy playing with a good selection of high-quality toys and resources. They join together to play table tennis and enjoy rolling and chasing hoops. Children engage in table-top games and use small-world resources. Other children construct with magnetic shapes or spend time drawing and colouring. Staff are warm and friendly and show a strong interest in what children do and say. They talk to children, ask questions and encourage them to share their thoughts, helping to build on their language skills. Key persons gather important information from parents before children start at the club. This includes information about children's preferences, likes and dislikes. They make good use of this information to support new children to settle.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff are kind, friendly and welcoming. They ensure children's similarities and differences are celebrated and valued. Children are generally self-assured and settled in their surroundings. Children of all ages know what to expect during sessions as staff share clear boundaries and follow consistent practices. This supports children to behave well. Children are happy and say they enjoy attending the club. They learn about the importance of adopting a healthy lifestyle. Children enjoy a very good range of healthy snacks and enjoy being active. They receive consistent support for their care needs.
