This provision is good

n Staff provide a warm and welcoming environment and a safe space for children. n Staff have good attachments with children, who settle quickly and feel confident to interact with their peers. n Children have access to a spacious outdoor environment, which has exciting and challenging equipment. This helps to develop children's physical skills. n Leaders have effective monitoring and vetting processes in place to ensure that all staff are suitable to work with children. n Staff demonstrate a good understanding of the signs and symptoms of abuse. They know the setting's safeguarding procedure if they have concerns about a child's welfare. n Staff set high expectations by modelling good behaviour. They also challenge poor behaviour in an appropriate manner. n Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are encouraged to take part in group activities, so that they bond well with other children.

This provision is good

n Leaders have good systems in place to help staff reflect on daily activities. However, they do not use this information effectively to make improvements to the setting. n Leaders seek to tackle inequalities and have made good links with a local cafe, who provide regular snacks for the children. However, staff do not consistently encourage healthy eating habits or talk about the benefits of exercise.

p.2

Effectiveness of leadership and management is good

Safeguarding is effective. Staff attend training to help them identify when a child might be at risk of harm or abuse. Leaders complete daily session forms to encourage staff to reflect on their individual practice. However, leaders do not make good use of this information in order to improve the quality of practice. Staff plan future activities together and consult parents and children. Leaders ensure that all staff are trained to deliver the early years foundation stage and they foster a culture of learning through play. Staff model good behaviour well and address poor conduct so that children behave respectfully to one another.

p.3

Quality of teaching, learning and assessment is good

Staff provide creative and stimulating activities which help to keep children fully engaged and remain focused. For example, children enjoy mixing ingredients together to make 'slime'. They show lots of enthusiasm when talking about different textures, and say 'look, mine is sticky'. Children with SEND play collaboratively with their peers, who are respectful and kind. Staff use their knowledge and skills to help parents recreate activities at home, for example making play dough. There is a spacious outdoor environment which supports children to take positive risks. They can move in a variety of ways, which helps to develop their gross-motor skills. Children are free to explore the garden and have a safe space to run and walk. Staff also set up appropriate activities for children to develop their communication and physical skills.

p.3

Personal development, behaviour and welfare are good

Staff organise the environment well and resources are easily accessible to help children develop their independence skills. Staff support children to become confident, so they feel proud of their achievements. Children proudly tell staff, 'I can use the zip wire'. Staff work well with parents to promote good behaviour, and they model and share strategies that support behaviour management at home. Staff are very responsive to children and provide a secure base for them to learn and develop. Although regular attendance at the setting is not compulsory, there is a strong community presence and children enjoy coming to the holiday scheme.
