Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

They have a good understanding of the signs and symptoms of abuse and wider safeguarding issues. The manager ensures staff's knowledge and understanding are up to date through regular supervision and staff meetings. The manager ensures the safety of children through implementing robust risk assessments and policies. Staff are deployed effectively to supervise and care for children indoors and outdoors. The manager seeks the views of children, parents and staff to provide an accurate picture of how well the club is doing and to plan future improvements.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff gather useful information from parents about children's interests and personal development when they first join the club. They make regular observations of children's engagement and enjoyment in their activities. They use this knowledge to help children settle in quickly and build their confidence. They further develop children's enthusiasm by linking activities to themes chosen by the children themselves. For example, children have created a rain forest display using a variety of media and materials. Children play collaboratively as they cheer each other on during a game of football. Older children invite younger children to play their games and they help them to understand the rules. Children have opportunities to learn about people in the wider world and enjoy planned activities about different cultures and festivals. They learn about the local community. For example, they visit local attractions and staff invite local police and veterinary

surgeons to visit the children in the club.

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff are incredibly thoughtful and support children to build on their already very good sharing. Children are highly caring and extremely considerate of others. They have made secure friendships with others and take a genuine interest in how each other's day has been. Children display exceptional warmth towards each other. Children have an abundance of opportunities to develop their physical skills. For instance, they play ball games extremely cooperatively outside and have a huge space to run and exert energy. Children use excellent hygiene practices and good manners. Staff provide an excellent range of nutritious snacks for children to choose from. This supports children's individual preferences extremely well. Staff make mealtimes very social occasions as they sit with children and take time to talk with them about their day.
