Inspection of Allkidscan @ Bannockburn Primary School Bannockburn Primary School, 30 Church Manorway, London SE2 0HY

p.1

This provision does not meet requirements

Children are happy and eager to participate in the club activities. However, children's safety is compromised, as leaders do not ensure staff understand safeguarding policies and procedures. Staff are not able to identify children who may be being abused or know what to do to act upon any concerns they may have. Despite this, children have fun and enjoy the activities at this holiday club. Staff ensure that children who have not attended before are settled into the group. Older and younger children are divided into separate groups to ensure the activities provided are age appropriate. This means the rules of the games children play are understood by even the youngest children and they can participate fully.

This provision does not meet requirements

Leaders and staff have experience supporting children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). Staff gather information before children start, so that children's needs can be met. Staff have high expectations for all children to participate, include others, take turns, and behave respectfully. Children use good manners and demonstrate their understanding of the club rules when they attend the club.

n Leaders ensure the setting's safeguarding policy is up to date and contains accurate information, such as contact details of key professionals. However, ineffective induction and subsequent training does not ensure staff fully understand the correct procedures to follow if they have any concerns about a child's safety or welfare, or if there is an allegation made about a member of staff. n Children listen to staff and follow the rules that help to keep them safe. Children are quick to remind their friends to raise their hand if they have a question. Children are keen to learn the rules of new games and they request to repeat activities they have enjoyed previously. Staff listen to children and value their opinions and ideas. This helps children feel a part of the holiday club and ensures the day runs smoothly. n Staff join children in the activities and games. They share children's joy when goals are scored, or their team wins at a relay game. Staff are aware of children

7 April 2022 team make good use of these spaces to deliver an exciting programme of games, organised sports, and dance activities. The staff team are enthusiastic about their roles. They speak passionately about the value of physical exercise, working as a team and being healthy. n The manager communicates effectively with parents to ensure any additional intervention children require at school, such as one-to-one support, is replicated at the holiday club. This is achieved through advance planning and accessing additional funding, and meets children's needs well. n Staff meet at the end of every day to discuss any matters arising, challenges they have faced and the plan for the following day. Children's ideas and preferences are incorporated into these plans. These daily meetings help the team share their expertise and implement effective behaviour management strategies. This means the holiday club runs well throughout the week.

n The manager engages well with the host school and other schools in the area. Parents say the club communicates effectively with them to ensure their child comes prepared. Children with SEND or in receipt of additional funding can be referred to the holiday club. This means the cohort of children attending the sessions is reflective of the local area and inclusive to all.

Safeguarding

The arrangements for safeguarding are not effective.

p.3

Safeguarding

Leaders do not fully understand their responsibilities with regard to safeguarding. They implement robust recruitment procedures to ensure staff are suitable to work with children. However, subsequent induction and safeguarding training do not prepare staff for their role in keeping children safe. Staff do not demonstrate a clear understanding of the procedures to follow should they have concerns about a colleague's conduct or a child's welfare. Despite this, staff are vigilant and they make sure they supervise children well at all times to ensure their safety. The areas accessed by children are safe, well maintained, and secure.
