This provision meets requirements
Staff put in place a range of measures to make sure children are safe and to help them feel secure. Staff closely supervise children as they transition from the school day to their time in the club. Staff enthusiastically welcome the children into the out-of-school provision and know the children well. Prior to starting staff gather all the information they need to meet children's medical and dietary requirements.
p.2
This provision meets requirements
Staff promote independence. For example, children are responsible for putting their own belongings away. They independently make their own choices, dependent on their own wants and needs. Children respect each other, for example they ask to play with each other. Children are confident to ask staff for help and staff are quick to support them. Staff seek out quieter children and encourage them to join in. This helps these children to grow in confidence and make the most out of the activities that are provided.
p.2
This provision meets requirements
Staff set up a range of exciting activities. These have been thoroughly planned to support children's interests and development. For example, younger children can play with play dough when older children can create with beads. This extends their fine motor skills and imaginations. When the children enter the out-of-school provision, they excitedly choose what they would like to do. Some children go straight to play, while others patiently queue to get some food. Staff encourage children to take turns, which children do with ease. The children respect one another.

n The out-of-school provision offers a wide range of activities and these activities enable children to build further on skills they are developing at school. For example, staff take children into the hall to dance and play group games. Staff want children to be physically active and promote good health. As a result, they put in place measures to ensure children can access the outside area to play energetically throughout the year, including during the months when it gets dark early. Staff put extra precautions in place to ensure children's safety at all times. For example, writing all the children's names down and having an extra member of staff when going outside. Staff explain how the weather and light does not stop them, as they can use torches when it is dark. n The children's behaviour is good, but the volume is high from the children playing with their friends. However, staff use a range of techniques to gain
