Inspection of Big Bradleys OOSC Market Weighton Childrens Centre, Princess Road, Market Weighton, YORK YO43 3EY

p.1

This provision does not meet requirements

n The management of the provision is ineffective. Contingency arrangements, for when key staff are off work, do not promote children's safety. Specifically, cover staff, who collected older children from school on the day of the inspection, had not had their suitability checked. Therefore, the arrangements for safeguarding are ineffective. However, key staff have attended child protection training to keep their knowledge up to date. Staff, including cover staff, recognise if children are at risk of harm and understand reporting procedures. They are also aware of the setting's mobile phone policy and follow this vigilantly. The arrangements for supervising children as they play outdoors, and for providing first aid, are appropriate. n On the whole, documentation is well organised. However, some children's details were missing at the inspection. n The premises and resources are safe and secure. They are organised so that

children may choose from a range of activities that interests them. For example, there is a good range of craft materials, tabletop games and books. Although there were no early years children attending on the day of the inspection, the older children were seen to enjoy the activities provided and behave very well. n Staff and parents of early years children explain how they work together to ensure that children's individual needs can be met. They explain how information from health specialists is shared with staff so that children's language development can be promoted. n The outdoor facilities are particularly good. The older children confirm that they play outdoors almost every day. Some parents of older children comment that they chose this setting because their children love to play outdoors. n The premises are clean and hygienic. Staff provide appropriate arrangements to maintain children's good health. They offer various healthy snacks and

encourage children to become independent. n Staff understand how to promote children's self-esteem and their good behaviour. Parents also comment that the club is 'like a family' and that staff provide a very pleasant environment. n The provider works with the local authority to monitor the quality of the provision. Parents' views are also sought on how the club operates.

There were no children present when this inspection took place. The findings in this report are based on evidence gathered from discussions with those who care for the children and an inspection of the premises, equipment and relevant documentation. Where there are no children present, no judgement is made on the quality of the early years provision as there is no reliable evidence on which to assess its impact on children. The report states whether the provider continues to meet the requirements of registration.
