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

Behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines Strong standard

Leaders and staff have high expectations for children's behaviour. They provide a happy and harmonious environment for children. Staff are consistently positive role models for children. They listen to children and calmly explain what comes next, taking account of children's age and stage of development. This helps all children to develop highly positive patterns of behaviour and to clearly understand expectations. Children consistently follow the club rules and routines and behave very well. Children engage very well in activities and are willing to try new things. They listen carefully and follow instructions during group games. Staff regularly praise and encourage children, which enables them to develop high levels of confidence and self-esteem.

p.2

Behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines Strong standard

The club works closely with families to make adjustments for children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. This has a highly positive impact on children's engagement and behaviour. Children consistently manage and regulate their feelings and responses. A variety of tools are available to support all children with this, for example, sensory resources and quiet areas. This enables all children to feel supported and fully enjoy the club. Children understand the impact of their behaviour on others, helping them to develop very positive relationships with their friends and staff. Children quickly learn to treat others with kindness and respect.

p.2

Inclusion Strong standard

Leaders and staff know the children very well. They work together consistently to ensure all children can take part and enjoy what the club has to offer. For example, they continually consider children's age and stage of development, when planning activities. The club is very welcoming and highly inclusive. Leaders and staff swiftly adapt activities and routines to ensure all children can enjoy attending the club. This make a sustained difference to children's opportunities and experiences. Staff are calm and patient in their interactions with children. They speak clearly and use visual prompts to support children's communication, for instance.

p.2

Inclusion Strong standard

Leaders work closely with parents, carers and the host school. They find out about children's unique needs and any barriers children's may face. This enables leaders to gain a deep understanding of children's needs and provide tailored support right from the start. Leaders are highly reflective and consistently use and review this information, to make sure any barriers to children's wellbeing and engagement are removed.

p.2

Inclusion Strong standard

Staff benefit from training and support to continually improve their understanding of supporting children's individual needs. For example, staff have had training in managing children's behaviour. They have introduced resources and strategies, such as providing a quiet space in a dark tent to help children to calm down. They use visual aids, such as clocks, to help children wait and understand what comes next. This helps children to be able to regulate and manage their feelings and responses.

p.2

Children's welfare and wellbeing Expected standard

Leaders and staff have suitable policies and procedures in place, which underpin practice and promote children's welfare. The friendly, caring staff and the welcoming environment help children to feel happy and settled. An effective key-person system helps children develop secure attachments and ensures their individual needs are known and met. Children's care needs are addressed well. Staff notice when children are tired and provide quieter activities for them, for instance. Staff engage well with children and they all have fun together. All children build warm and trusting relationships with the staff who care for them.

p.3

Children's welfare and wellbeing Expected standard

Children enjoy nutritious snacks, which are prepared to meet their individual dietary requirements. Children wash their hands before eating and enjoy sociable meals together. However, staff do not consistently use routines, such as mealtimes, to enhance children's understanding of the benefits of healthy eating and to develop their independence, such as being able to self-serve their food. Children regularly enjoy physical games and outdoor play. They understand how to stay safe in the club. Staff remind them of how to use large equipment and to follow the rules during games.

p.3

Leadership and governance Expected standard

Leaders are ambitious for all children and have made improvements since the last inspection. Improvements to staff induction and training has strengthened outcomes for children. Staff understand their roles and responsibilities to keep children safe in the club. Staff benefit from supervision sessions and professional development. Leaders ensure staff feel valued and their workload is manageable. Staff say they enjoy working in the club and feel well supported.

p.3

Leadership and governance Expected standard

Leaders demonstrate a commitment to making ongoing improvements. Overall, leaders identify their strengths and area for development within the club. Children typically enjoy and benefit from the range of activities and support on offer. However, leaders do not consistently monitor daily practice to ensure children have continuous opportunities to gain knowledge, such as the benefits of making healthy choices, and do things independently.

p.3

Leadership and governance Expected standard

Leaders have secure links with the host school. They exchange information to ensure children's needs are known and met and so that the club can complement what children learn in school. Partnerships with parents and carers are effective. They speak highly of the club and of how staff are welcoming and their children enjoy attending.

What it's like to be a child at this setting

Children are happy and have fun at this welcoming and inclusive club. They enjoy, and engage well in, activities, which leaders and staff organise well and involve children in choosing. Every child has a voice and can contribute their ideas of what they want to do. Children know and follow the club's rules and routines and are engaged in all the club has to offer. They have great fun as they explore crafts and construction indoors. They fly paper aeroplanes and take turns during team sports games, outside. Children show interest in what others say and develop respect for, and understanding of, others.

About this setting

This helps all children to feel included and to benefit from what the club offers. Children play in mixed- age groups. Older children are willing to help younger ones, which helps to create a family feel to the club. The club values parent and carers' feedback and is welcoming to all families. They work closely with families to reduce any barriers children may face. This helps support children's wellbeing and engagement and ensure all children's needs are met.

p.5

Next steps

Leaders should help children learn more about healthy food choices and maximise opportunities to support their independence and personal development. Leaders should focus even more closely on monitoring staff's practice to ensure consistently high-quality experiences for children.
