Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff have a robust knowledge of child protection procedures and the manager tests their knowledge regularly. The provider ensures that staff are suitable to work with children. New staff receive good support and an effective induction to ensure they understand their roles and responsibilities. Staff vigilantly supervise children and complete daily risk assessments to ensure the environment is safe and secure. The use of peer observations provide staff with regular opportunities to discuss their professional development and to enhance their practice. The managers regularly monitor young children's progress. They review planning to meet children's needs and identify relevant staff development opportunities that help improve the provision. Staff have established positive relationships with parents. They share information to ensure continuity of care to meet each child's needs.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff work closely with school staff to follow what children learn at school and provide activities to build on their learning and interests. They provide children with a good balance of adult-led and child-initiated activities. On arrival at the club, children quickly become immersed in their play. They are well supported by staff as they have fun together. Staff encourage children's independence well, so that children can access or ask for additional resources to extend their activities. Young children enjoy exploring creative resources and use a wide range of craft materials to make colourful collage pictures. Children play imaginatively with their friends. For example, they devise their own games as they play with toy vehicles. They collaborate well to discuss, negotiate and work out the rules together. Children display high levels of perseverance and determination in their activities.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff provide a welcoming and friendly environment. Children settle well and staff help them gain confidence in making decisions and choosing what they want to do. Staff are good role models and demonstrate to children the importance of using good manners. Children have good social skills and enjoy chatting to each other and staff about their day at school and their interests at home. Children learn about good hygiene routines and how to keep themselves safe. They have plenty of opportunities to be physically active indoors and outdoors, this helps to promote children's physical development. Children play happily alongside each other and staff encourage them to learn to cooperate and understand rules. Children have excellent opportunities to learn about their local community and diversity. For instance, children learn about different festivals throughout the year and join in with charity events.
