This provision is good

n Staff welcome parents and children when they arrive at the provision. Children feel safe and secure, settle readily and play together in harmony. Their behaviour is good. n Staff introduce new activities to children. Children engage well in a range of experiences, make new friends and get on well with each other. n Partnerships between staff and parents are positive. For example, staff inform parents about what their children have enjoyed most during their play at the club. n Staff work well with the school staff to ensure good continuity and enjoyment for all children. For example, they gain information from the school staff about children who need extra help to support their medical needs and to help ensure all children's welfare, health and safety. n The manager works well with staff and evaluates the quality of the provision to help ensure that children receive good care and support. n There is no area where children can sit, relax in a comfortable manner and access

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Robust vetting checks help ensure that all staff are suitable to work with the children. Staff have a good understanding of child protection issues and know how to follow the reporting procedures to protect children in their care. They undertake regular and thorough risk assessments on the premises, including resources, to help children remain safe. The manager supports staff well and offers them clear guidance to help them further develop the quality of their practice. Staff benefit from training to help strengthen their knowledge and skills. The manager and staff consider the comments and suggestions of parents, children and outside professionals to maintain a good service. Children comment that they enjoy coming to the club, become familiar with the routines and try new activities.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff gain relevant information from parents and school staff and use such information to provide stimulating activities for children. They play with children and show them how to handle resources with care. Children enjoy their time at the setting and learn to be creative. For example, they love to use a variety of tools to build their favourite models. Children are confident to show their work to staff, who praise them for their good efforts. Younger children are keen to explore resources to find out how things work. Older children can use writing materials to draw pictures of themselves and their families. Staff hold discussions with children and help them understand that families are different. Children listen carefully and respond well to instructions.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff are good role models for children. They share their behaviour rules and code of conduct with children so that they are clear about what is expected. Children learn to share resources fairly, take turns and respect the feelings of others. They become more independent in the way they manage small tasks and help themselves during snack times. Children enjoy outdoor play, fresh air and exercise. For example, younger children learn to skip using skipping ropes and become aware of other people around them. Older children eagerly create their favourite games, such as 'statues', learn to negotiate rules and enjoy challenging physical play.
