Effectiveness of leadership and management is good
Safeguarding is effective. The manager and staff know the signs that would alert them to have concerns for children and the actions they should take to protect their welfare. The manager provides staff with regular training that ensures they are clear about safeguarding issues and practices. Staff are vigilant about children's safety. They carry out regular risk assessments to identify and reduce potential hazards, both at the setting and for outings. Staff monitor children's whereabouts vigilantly to ensure children's safety and supervise them well as they play. They attend to any accidents and injuries that children have appropriately and keep parents informed about these. Staff communicate effectively with parents to share information about children's well-being. They gain detailed information about children when they first start to meet their needs and build good relationships. Effective communication with the school means that staff

can identify any areas where children may need more support to enable them to feel valued.
p.3
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good
Staff provide children with quality interactions and enhance their play skilfully. They know how to build on what children are learning at school. Children enjoy deepening their understanding of a range of topics and extending their skills. For example, they use their knowledge of pulley systems to create moving mine shafts. Staff support children's literacy and mathematical understanding successfully. Children benefit from opportunities to read with staff. They confidently use their maths knowledge as they calculate their scores during fun target games. Staff support children's communication and language effectively. They encourage children to give instructions and listen with interest to their responses. Children engage staff in conversations about their home lives and holidays. Staff provide children with a good range of activities that support their creative ideas. Children enjoy decorating Easter bonnets and sculpting with dough. They use their

imaginations as they pretend to cook in the mud kitchen and collect natural ingredients to make a stew.
p.3
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good
Children develop good social skills. They play together harmoniously and show kindness and consideration to others. For example, they offer to help staff to tidy up. They display a strong sense of teamwork as they cooperate with each other to play a variety of energetic parachute games. Children learn about keeping themselves safe, such as being alert to dangers when they cross roads and if they are around water. Staff help children to gain an understanding of healthy lifestyles. Children access drinks and healthy snacks when they are hungry, such as toast and fruit. Staff follow good hygiene routines and children learn the importance of washing their hands before eating. Staff help children to develop their awareness of communities in the wider world. Children gain an understanding of diversity and about the different ways that people celebrate.
