Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Safe recruitment procedures are in place to promote children's safety and staff are clear about their roles and responsibilities. Leaders and staff have very good knowledge of the possible signs and symptoms of abuse, and the reporting procedures to raise their concerns. Leaders demonstrate an ambitious vision. They understand and acknowledge where improvements could be made. Effective evaluation procedures takes account of the views of parents, children and staff. For example, parents and children are encouraged to complete surveys at the end of every holiday club. Leaders assess risk in all areas of the premises used by children. Staff and children assess risk before each activity to help minimise any hazards. Leaders and staff successfully complete mandatory training. However, they have not yet fully explored and identified other ways to strengthen their skills and knowledge further.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Children keenly participate in adult-led activities, which are adapted to meet the different age ranges of children at the club. They engage well in activities of their choice, such as bingo, puzzles, and arts and crafts. Children use techniques, such as football control, and skilfully balance eggs on spoons to further strengthen gross motor skills and coordination. Staff enthusiastically encourage children to take part, and offer praise when they finish a race. They provide good support for children. For example, staff help them to take their turn with card games and physical activities. Staff play bingo with children and help them strengthen their counting skills and sound out the letters in their name to enhance what they learn in school.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Children show mutual respect to each other, and work well in groups. Younger children are assigned a key person to promote their personal, social and emotional development. Staff are good role models and help children to learn how to keep themselves safe. For instance, they encourage children to walk indoors and sit carefully on benches. Leaders and staff provide a variety of exciting activities to motivate and encourage all children to join in. For example, children thoroughly enjoy the messy experience of making clay pots. They are confident and independent. Children are happy during their time at the club.
