Staff maintain clear and consistent expectations, helping children understand boundaries and routines across the mixed-age provision.

p.2

Behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines Expected standard

Children generally engage well alongside children of different ages throughout the day. They share resources, take turns and include others in activities and conversations. For example, during group discussions, children listen attentively to reminders about club expectations, handwashing, safety procedures and the importance of using kind and respectful behaviour towards others. Children respond positively to these reminders and settle quickly into the daily routines of the club.

p.2

Behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines Expected standard

Staff interact positively with children and model respectful behaviour consistently. They provide clear guidance and gentle reminders, where needed, helping children to manage their behaviour appropriately during activities, transitions and social routines.

Children respond positively to recognition from staff, including certificates awarded at the end of the day to celebrate positive behaviour and participation.

Staff support children's wellbeing through familiar routines and positive interactions that help children feel safe and settled at the club. Children demonstrate an understanding of good hygiene practices. Staff provide reminders about handwashing, hydration and safe behaviour during activities and routines, helping children understand how to keep themselves healthy and safe.

Children also benefit from quieter opportunities to relax and socialise with friends during the day.

p.2

Children's welfare and wellbeing Expected standard

Snack and mealtime routines are calm and well supervised. Staff are aware of children's allergies, dietary needs and medical information and reinforce safer eating practices throughout the day. However, snack and mealtime routines do not yet consistently promote children's wellbeing and healthy lifestyles across the provision.

Inclusion Expected standard

Leaders and staff promote an inclusive environment where children are welcomed warmly and supported to participate within the mixed-age provision. Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) are understood appropriately by staff, who know children well and respond sensitively to their individual needs.

p.3

Inclusion Expected standard

Leaders gather information from parents, carers and the host school to help staff understand children's individual needs, routines and support requirements before children attend the club. This helps staff provide continuity and reassurance throughout sessions. Staff adapt activities, interactions and levels of support to help children feel emotionally secure and included alongside their peers. Children who speak English as an additional language are supported through clear communication, modelling and reassurance during activities and routines.

Inclusion Expected standard

Children generally access activities confidently and enjoy opportunities to spend time with children of different ages throughout the day. Staff provide reassurance and encouragement to support children's participation in activities and routines. Children who require additional emotional support are comforted sensitively by familiar staff, helping them settle and engage within the group. However, opportunities for younger children to participate independently within mixed-age activities are not yet consistently promoted throughout the provision.

p.3

Leadership and governance Expected standard

Leaders oversee the day-to-day running of the club effectively. Staff are deployed appropriately to supervise children and support activities, maintaining a safe and organised environment where children understand routines and expectations. Staff report that they feel well supported by leaders. Leaders provide a full induction, and staff access mandatory training, which helps them to carry out their roles with confidence.

p.3

Leadership and governance Expected standard

Leaders know children and families well and maintain positive relationships with parents. Parents report that they are happy with the care provided and that their children enjoy attending. Leaders maintain regular communication with families and use information shared by parents to support children's wellbeing and individual needs throughout sessions.

Rita Dome Children enjoy spending time with their friends and engage positively throughout the day. Staff provide a suitable range of experiences, including creative activities, outdoor play and quieter opportunities to relax. For example, children enjoy participating in physical games outdoors, where they cooperate with others, take turns and encourage one another during play. At other times, children choose quieter activities, such as arts and crafts, construction play and games with friends.
