This provision is good

n Relationships between staff, parents and children are respectful. Children settle readily, play together in harmony and develop a very strong sense of belonging and community. Their behaviour is excellent. n Staff hold discussions with children and introduce new activities to them. Children engage well in a range of learning experiences, make new friends and respond well to requests. n Partnership between staff and parents are positive. For example, staff keep parents well informed about what their children have enjoyed during their play in the club. n Staff establish very strong links with the school staff to ensure good continuity and enjoyment for all children. n The deputy headteacher of St John's Primary School spoke about how the school leaders share information and work together with the management of the club to help ensure children's welfare, health and safety. n Managers continually monitor and evaluate the quality of the provision to help ensure

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. The provider undertakes the required vetting checks on all staff to ensure that they are suitable to work with the children. Staff demonstrate a good knowledge of safeguarding practice and know what to do if they have any welfare concerns about a child in their care. They undertake regular and thorough checks on the facilities to help children remain safe. Managers supervise staff and offer them specific feedback to further develop their knowledge and skills. Staff attend regular training and share their knowledge with colleagues to help improve experiences for all children. Managers and staff act on the views, comments and suggestions of parents, children and others to maintain a good service.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff gather relevant information from parents and school staff to provide activities that enthuse children to learn. They are sensitive to the needs of all children and play with them. Children enjoy their time at the club and show consideration to others. Children love to be creative. For example, they eagerly mould, roll and cut play dough into different shapes. Younger children love to explore how water flows down the water wheels and make good comments on how water travels fast. Older children keenly make necklaces using colourful beads. Children enjoy songs and stories. They actively take part in physical activities and develop good control and coordination.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are outstanding

Staff are excellent role models for the children. They talk to children in a calm and professional manner and superbly support children's social and emotional well-being. Children share resources fairly and take turns. Older children offer a helping hand to the younger ones. Children enjoy healthy snacks, become increasingly independent and understand that they can access water at all times. The activities, such as 'Aktiva has got talent', provide excellent opportunities for children to develop a high level of confidence and boost their self-esteem. Children of different ages get on very well with each other and perform beautifully in front of their friends. Children respect each other and understand that different people have different talents and should feel proud to share these with others. Such activities enhance and complement the engagement and enjoyment of school activities.
