The childminder does not provide experiences that engage and motivate children to learn. n Assessment systems are not accurate or effective enough to help the childminder to plan challenging activities that are closely linked to children's next steps in learning.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is inadequate

The childminder has not met the actions raised at previous inspections. She has not placed enough focus on developing good-quality teaching skills. The childminder has worked with local authority advisers to try and implement improvements. However, this has not resulted in raising the overall quality of the provision. The childminder's systems to monitor and develop her practice are not robust enough to raise the quality of teaching and support children to make at least good progress. She does not have a good enough overview of children's abilities to support her in the planning of activities and experiences. Consequently, the quality of teaching and learning is poor. Safeguarding is effective. The childminder has a sound understanding of child protection and safeguarding issues. She knows the procedures to follow if she has any concerns about children's welfare.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is inadequate

Although the childminder is well qualified, she does not ensure that her practice is strong enough to extend children's learning. Activities and play experiences lack quality interactions and challenge. The childminder gives very little consideration to meeting children's individual needs and interests. Although some observations and assessments have been made, they are not used effectively to plan a suitable range of experiences to extend children's learning. Children quickly lose interest and wander around. They do not engage in activities because the planning is not challenging and purposeful. Teaching does not focus on children's individual next steps in learning. As a result, children make poor progress in their learning.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are inadequate

The childminder does not address negative behaviour appropriately. For example, children hit or kick and the childminder does not explain to them why such behaviour is unacceptable. This means that young children do not learn what is expected of them. Children move confidently around the childminder's home and are secure in their surroundings. The childminder helps children to develop healthy lifestyles. For example, children benefit from healthy food and physical exercise outdoors.

p.3

Outcomes for children are inadequate

Children are not engaged or motivated to learn. They are not making as much progress as they can due to variable teaching, inaccurate assessments and inconsistent planning for their future learning. Children do not learn to concentrate or participate in activities for long periods of time. They do not learn about acceptable behaviour and the consequences of their conduct on each other's feelings. Children do not gain the skills they need to prepare them for their move to future education, including starting school.
