This provision is inadequate
n The managers, who also own the provision, do not ensure that recruitment procedures are fully robust when considering the suitability of staff. This breaches the requirements of the Early Years and Childcare Registers and compromises children's safety. n The managers, who are also the designated safeguarding leads, do not have a good understanding of when to share information with Ofsted or other agencies. They have failed to notify Ofsted of a significant event, in line with the statutory guidance, as required. n The managers do not have effective arrangements in place to monitor staff performance and ensure that staff fully understand their roles and responsibilities. Some staff have a poor understanding of safeguarding issues. Staff also fail to follow the setting's procedures, such as when managing children's behaviour. n There is no effective key-person system in place and staff do not seek important

information about children from their parents. Therefore, children do not receive individual, personalised care to meet their welfare and learning needs as effectively as possible. Kidz, 2 April 2019 2 of 7
p.1
It has the following strengths
n Staff provide a variety of opportunities for children to express themselves creatively. For instance, during the inspection children decorated Easter eggs. They used a range of art and craft materials to create colourful and imaginative designs. n The managers have developed good links with teachers at the school that children attend, to exchange information about children's learning and welfare needs.

p.4
Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate
Safeguarding is ineffective. Managers do not understand the welfare requirements well enough to ensure that children are kept safe and their welfare needs are catered for appropriately. They do not ensure that appropriate checks are carried out on staff before making decisions about their suitability. Managers do not provide regular safeguarding training for staff and do not check that staff understand the setting's policies and procedures. As a result, some staff have a poor grasp of safeguarding issues, such as how to recognise when a child is at risk from radicalisation. Managers seek parents' views on the quality of the provision and use these to help them make changes. For example, they use parents' suggestions to help them devise menus for children. Staff attend some training, such as play worker training and paediatric first aid, to enhance their professional knowledge.
p.5
Quality of teaching, learning and assessment requires improvement
Managers have not implemented a key-person system to support children's learning and ensure that activities are tailored to their individual needs. Consequently, children sometimes lack interest and motivation during activities or are unsure about what they can do. This prevents them from enjoying their time at the club as much as possible. However, staff provide encouragement as children practise new skills, such as hitting a tennis ball with a racquet. This supports children's confidence and self-esteem. Children enjoy playing with toy figures and vehicles, they show good imagination as they use these to create simple storylines. Children have access to a wide selection of books, to help promote their interest in reading.
p.5
Personal development, behaviour and welfare are inadequate
The significant weaknesses in safeguarding mean that children's welfare cannot be assured. The managers do not allocate a key person to each child as required and staff do not collect information from parents about children's individual needs. Consequently, staff do not always know children well enough to sensitively support their emotional well-being and meet their developmental needs. For example, when they need help with toileting or with joining in. Staff do not consistently guide children's behaviour effectively or help them to understand what they should or should not do. Children enjoy playing outdoors. They practise skills such as tennis and football, which contributes to their enjoyment of being physically active. Staff ensure that children have a selection of fresh vegetables at mealtimes and encourage children to make healthy choices about what they eat. Kidz, 2 April 2019 6 of 7
