This provision is good
n Staff make sure children are safe and implement effective risk assessments indoors and outside. Staff encourage children to understand how to keep themselves safe and identify potential risks for themselves. n Children's behaviour is good and they play very well together. Children are kind and caring. They show each other mutual respect, listen attentively and talk to one another. Children develop good social skills as they mix well with different year groups. n The manager has worked hard since the last inspection. She has built strong and valuable partnerships with the on-site school. This helps to fully support all children and ensure staff meet their care and welfare needs consistently. n Staff provide a wealth of experiences that captures children's natural curiosity and imagination successfully. Children make independent decisions from a vast array of stimulating resources. Staff plan activities carefully to fully complement children's

learning in school. n The manager and staff are well qualified and experienced. They work well together to ensure they promote children's safety fully at all times. n Children learn about the importance of healthy lifestyles. They enjoy physical activity, such as learning yoga moves, playing ball games and outdoor play. Children enjoy taking part in cooking sessions, which helps them to learn all about what a balanced diet is and how to make healthy choices. n Supervisions do not focus sharply enough on continuing to develop staff's knowledge and skills to raise the quality of teaching even further. n During some activities, staff do not consistently give children full support to extend their thinking skills and they are sometimes too quick to provide the answers for children.

p.2
Effectiveness of leadership and management is good
The manager is committed to providing families with high-quality childcare. She is ambitious and reviews the quality of the provision well alongside her team. Together they seek the views of parents and children to enable them to develop the provision and make continuous improvements. Children are fully involved in making decisions about the club. For example, children vote on who they would like to be the club representatives. The representatives gain feedback from the other children about what they would like to see improve. Staff value children's ideas and take on board their feedback. Safeguarding is effective. Staff are vigilant about children's safety and know what to do if they are concerned about a child in their care. Parents value the club highly and staff make time to discuss their child's activities. Staff make sure that parents are involved and fully included. Staff utilise the skills of parents well. For example, they invite

parents to lead workshops with the children during the holidays. Parents have implemented hammock building workshops and cooking activities from around the world with the children.
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
Children settle immediately when they arrive at the club and choose what they want to do. They engage in self-chosen activities for significant amounts of time. Staff plan activities that they know children will enjoy and adapt their plans to suit children of all ages. For example, children enthusiastically join in with a group ball game outside. They show good emotional control when they are 'out', accepting it with good grace. Staff provide good opportunities for children to be creative and use their imaginations. Children work cooperatively in these activities, sharing and turn taking with ease. They use boxes, string and other resources to make their own Christmas decorations. Children enjoy making cakes and independently write their names on paper to tell staff which cake they have made. As younger children start to write, staff encourage them to spell out and write the letters that are familiar to them. Staff gather information about

children's achievements in the club. They observe children and keep booklets which contain samples of children's work to show the progress they make to parents.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
Children feel secure in the club. They have a key person who knows them well and liaises closely with their parents. Furthermore, when younger children first start, staff provide them with an older 'buddy'. The buddy plays with them and helps them to explore the new environment with confidence, boosting their self-esteem. Children are extremely confident and independent. For example, during mealtimes they prepare their sandwiches and pour their own drinks. Staff are interested in the children and use their connections with the early years teachers to discover what children are doing at school. For example, when an ambulance comes to the school, staff are aware of this and plan activities, such as making their own ambulance out of boxes. They encourage children to share news about their school day, which helps to make them feel valued and listened to. Staff value children's cultures and, in close partnership with parents, encourage

families to share their beliefs and celebrations.
