p.1
Safeguarding standards met
The safeguarding standards are met. This means that leaders and/or those responsible for governance and oversight fulfil their specific responsibilities and have established an open culture in which safeguarding is everyone's responsibility and concerns are actively identified, acted upon and managed. As a result, children are made safer and feel safe.
p.1

p.1
How we evaluate safeguarding
Met: The setting has an open and positive culture of safeguarding. Not met: The setting has not created an open and positive culture of safeguarding. Not all legal requirements are met.
p.1
Leadership and governance Strong standard
Leaders are strategic and highly driven by continuous improvement at the out-of-school club. They support staff to access focused and targeted training that aligns specifically with the improvement priorities of the club. Staff speak very positively about the high-quality learning opportunities that they receive. For example, they have specific training assigned to them that is supported by coaching from senior leaders. Staff have time to process this training and put it into practice in their new roles. Furthermore, staff have engaged in frequent monitoring visits with senior leaders and recognise how collaborative feedback works to raise the standard of the provision.
p.2
Leadership and governance Strong standard
Leaders have a clear process for supporting new staff and provide mandatory, as well as personalised professional training. They recognise there are areas of provision that need strengthening and remain focused on development. For example, processes of obtaining information from parents about children's individual needs is very secure. Leaders are providing staff with tailored coaching to ensure day-to-day practice is strengthened to ensure daily information sharing continues to be robust. Leaders consider the impact of workload and wellbeing when planning training, to ensure staff have time to understand and put their new knowledge into practice.
p.2
Leadership and governance Strong standard
Leaders are meticulous and focused on developing high-quality childcare. Leaders also maintain a focus on developing relationships with schools and engaging with the wider community. They support staff to create exciting activities that stimulate children's interests and help them build friendships throughout their time at the club.
p.2
Behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines Expected standard
Leaders and practitioners have been working together to establish and implement consistent rules and expectations for children. They have identified that this is an area of the provision that is currently developing. Overall children demonstrate positive behaviour towards one another. For example, children share and take turns with equipment. Furthermore, older children are kind and show younger children how to use different tools when playing with play dough. Rules and expectations are typically understood by children however, they are not yet embedded. For example, children often leave their resources on the tables and move on to other activities. Although staff plan for children to participate in tidying up, this expectation is not consistently reinforced and as a result, children do not fully understand what is expected of them.
p.2
Behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines Expected standard
Children are often very polite. They say please and thank you at snack time and initiate friendly conversations with one another as they play. Children's attitudes are often highly positive. For example, they joyfully engage in slime making activities and participate with enthusiasm as staff show them what to do. Leaders have a clear approach to attendance. They follow up any absences swiftly and work with parents to support children's regular attendance.
p.2
Children's welfare and wellbeing Expected standard
Leaders promote a culture where children's welfare and wellbeing are a priority. Procedures in place mean that information is generally shared well between parents, staff and teachers. For example, leaders are working with staff to support them to build secure relationships with all children as some staff are relatively new to the out-of-school club. Overall, staff are getting to know children well and leaders have developed a culture that focuses on supporting children's wellbeing. Leaders recognise that staff need to strengthen their knowledge of children's varying needs and have carefully aligned training to support them in developing their practice even further.
p.3
Children's welfare and wellbeing Expected standard
Leaders have high expectations for how children's health is promoted throughout the club and overall, staff understand this and recognise how their ongoing training has enhanced their skills. For example, leaders are supporting staff to introduce activities that promote good health and independence. Children learn to cut their own fruit as they prepare their snack. Leaders are supporting staff to recognise other areas in the routine that can help the youngest children to learn to do simple tasks for themselves.
p.3
Children's welfare and wellbeing Expected standard
Children learn about personal safety and recognise how to keep themselves safe. For example, they spot areas of shade in the playground and recognise that this helps keep them out of the heat whilst they enjoy ball games together.
p.3
Inclusion Expected standard
Leaders have developed effective systems that support them to meet the needs of children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND). For example, leaders build secure relationships with parents and carers when they first enquire about the provision, to discuss strategies that are currently in place for children and how they can best be supported at the out-of-school club. They work with professionals to explore how adjustments can be made to further enhance children's experiences.
p.3
Inclusion Expected standard
Leaders also consider how to support groups of children such as those who might face other barriers to their wellbeing and those who might be at a disadvantage. They are supporting staff to understand how different strategies and interventions can be used to mirror those that are used in school to support continuity of care.
p.3
Inclusion Expected standard
Generally, staff know children well and meet their individual needs effectively. Leaders have identified specific training to enhance staffs understanding of supporting children with SEND. This is beginning to develop staff practice and knowledge further so that the club can consistently make a demonstrable difference to children's experiences.

Children arrive cheerily from their classrooms. They are excited to greet one another and staff welcome them warmly. Staff begin friendly conversations with children as they discuss the hot weather and the exciting plans they have for the weekend.

Address:
Barnham Primary School 74 Elm Grove, Barnham Bognor Regis PO22 0HW and/or disabilities. Children develop positive social skills. For example, they play ball games together in the large outdoor playground and include one another fairly in their games. Leaders and staff are working together to further embed rules and boundaries at the out-of- school club, so that children consistently know what is expected of them.
p.5
Address:
Children are supported closely by staff who are highly attuned with their interests. Children enjoy resources and activities that have been tailored to suit the children in attendance. Staff and children make plans together, following exciting themes and create enriching experiences. For example, children have the opportunity to build tents and dens together and create pretend campfires when they show an interest in camping. As a result, children are engaged and enthusiastic about coming to the club. Staff are passionate and excited to gain new knowledge from training to further develop their skills.
p.5
Next steps
Leaders should continue to develop how staff implement behavioural expectations so that they are consistently implemented and commonly understood by all children.
