This provision meets requirements

Children behave very well. Staff are good role models. They give clear and consistent guidance on expected behaviour, such as tidying up resources after use. This means that children understand routines and know what is expected of them. Staff provide opportunities for children to develop social skills through games that encourage teamwork. For example, they create and follow route patterns, using different coloured cones. Staff and children collaborate to guess the pattern and jump across the cones in sequence. These experiences also help them to feel included and to develop their problem-solving skills.
