Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Managers ensure that staff are generally aware of their wider safeguarding responsibilities and how to spot the signs of abuse. All staff show awareness of the internal procedures to follow if they have concerns about a child. The manager is proactive about providing staff with training to enable them to carry out their roles. For example, all staff have completed first-aid training. The manager and staff have built a close, long-standing relationship with the school they collect the children from, to help support the children's care and well-being. The manager values the contributions of staff, parents and children and incorporates these into the setting's self- evaluation process.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide children with a range of interesting and stimulating activities that complement what they learn in school. For example, staff read stories to children and encourage their learning about positive adult role models who have made significant contributions to wider society. This helps children to have high aspirations for themselves. Children enjoy their time at the setting. They remain suitably engaged and immersed in craft making, role play, dressing up and drawing. Older children have the opportunity to complete homework in the quieter area of the setting. Staff support children's speaking and listening skills well. For example, they engage children in meaningful conversations and listen to their views and ideas.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Managers have good communication with the adults who care for the younger children during the day. They listen to handover information relating to the welfare of the children in order to meet their needs well. All the children have fun and enjoy themselves at the setting. They settle down quickly straight after arriving. The younger children are given plenty of opportunities to develop small- and large-muscle skills by using construction toys, drawing, colouring and balancing on physical equipment outside. The children enjoy mealtimes and independently make healthy food choices. Older children are friendly and caring towards each other and their younger peers in the setting. They are confident and keen to introduce themselves and say what they like about the setting. Staff are polite and encourage good manners. They are good role models for the children and are warm and caring towards them.
