This provision meets requirements

Children develop social skills and enjoy the range of activities staff provide. For example, children enjoy working together to find words in a word search. They take it in turns to find a word and help one another by pointing to letters the words start with. Staff support all children to engage. They offer their assistance to help younger children identify the letters in words and match them correctly.

This provision meets requirements

Children receive a variety of healthy food options for their snack, including the choice of filled sandwiches, wraps or toast with fruit and vegetable sticks. Children place their order of what they would like to eat, when staff ask them individually. When finished, children independently clear their plates away and get ready for activities. Children behave well and receive reminders from staff, when needed, of what they expect of them for their behaviour, for example, to walk inside.

n Staff support children to develop their physical skills. Outside, staff encourage children to work together to throw and catch balls. Staff model what children need to do and how to make it harder when they complete passes, for example moving around as they pass the ball. Additionally, staff support children who are acquiring throwing and catching skills. They explain specific actions that are needed to catch, for example have your arms out in front of you with your hands open. Children follow instructions, practise, then run to staff to tell them excitedly, 'I caught it.' Children of all ages participate and acquire skills. n Staff use children's interests to plan activities and experiences for them. Staff structure the club and tell children what is on offer. Sometimes, because of the structured activities, children are not given time to make their own independent choices. Therefore, some children participate well, but lack enthusiasm for what

they are doing. n Staff support children to learn how to use equipment safely. For example, when children ask to do 'big jumps', staff remind children they need to get a mat out first for their safety. Staff then describe how to get up onto equipment safely, and children coordinate their movements to climb up. Staff assess children's understanding of how to jump off items safely. Children show their

This gives children the confidence to jump off higher equipment with support from staff. n Staff understand and recognise when some children may require additional support. They provide areas to have 'quiet time' in. Staff accompany children and encourage them to talk about the pictures in a book of their choosing. While doing this, staff talk calmly and encourage children to talk about how they are feeling. This helps children to understand and express their emotions, manage them and then re-engage with the group when they are ready to. n Staff feel well supported. They say they are able to discuss any work-related issues and these are resolved swiftly. Managers hold meetings with staff to reflect on and develop their practice with children. Staff are encouraged by managers to reflect daily, in 'huddles', about how activities go, to improve what

they can offer children at the club. n Parents comment on the friendly staff that work at the club. They feel this has helped their children to settle quickly. Staff communicate what activities children have participated in and this helps parents feel informed about their children's time at the club. Parents add that their children are more than happy to attend and that their children frequently ask to attend the club.
