Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff can identify possible signs and symptoms of different types of abuse and neglect. They understand what action to take and who to notify if they have concerns about a child's welfare. Staff implement effective procedures for collecting children from the local school. They work well with school staff, to ensure they keep children safe and maintain their well-being. Staff complete daily safety checks of the environment and remove any identified hazards. This ensures children can play and learn safely. The manager follows rigorous systems for recruitment, induction and vetting procedures, to ensure staff suitability. All staff are trained in safeguarding and paediatric first aid. Staff talk to parents when they collect their children and messages between school and parents are passed on. Parents comment on staff being approachable and feel that they can easily contact the provider if they have anything they wish to discuss.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children arrive at the setting motivated and keen to play. They are observed to be happy and enjoy spending time with their friends. Staff provide a varied and exciting learning environment, where children can explore and investigate. Children are regularly involved in the planning of activities and are very sociable with their peers. Older children enjoy working together to create their own games, for example, they make a den outdoors to hide in. Staff engage children in conversations and listen carefully and challenge children's thinking. Younger children show good concentration as they spend long periods using craft resources to create dinosaur jigsaws. Staff encourage children to develop their understanding of mathematics. They encourage them to use numbers in games. Children understand that anything can be counted, including the number of times they hit the ball with the table tennis bat.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children develop positive relationships with staff. This helps to promote their personal, social and emotional development well. Children are encouraged to take turns and share resources. Staff support children to learn about keeping themselves healthy. For example, children wash their hands before eating and know this is to get rid of any germs. Children develop independence as they help to serve their own snack and drinks. Staff ensure children use the outdoor area daily. Children take part in physical activities, such as table tennis, ball games and use the facilities in the local park. This helps them to understand about the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. Children say that they must 'be kind' and say 'please' and 'thank you'. They behave well and learn to take turns, for example, when they play a parachute game in a large group.
