Leadership and governance Expected standard

Leaders have a precise vision for the breakfast and after-school club. The aim for children to develop skills around teamwork and cooperation. There is a focus on being active, both indoors and outdoors, through sport and team games. Leaders know what works well and what needs to develop further.

This helps staff feel valued and helps enhance the quality of care and experiences for children who attend the after-school club.

Leadership and governance Expected standard

Leaders have robust procedures in place for safer recruitment. This extends to a detailed induction process in which staff access a wide range of training so that they are confident in their role. Leaders offer comprehensive professional development opportunities for staff from apprenticeships to mentoring. There is support in place for staff who work with younger children. This helps to make sure that staff can meet the needs of all children who attend the club. Staff feedback that they are happy and feel supported in their work. They reflect weekly with other settings and staff. This allows them to share ideas and ask for advice. For example, they share strategies to manage children's behaviour and to engage children in activities.
