Highlights from Latest Inspection
What is it like to attend this early years setting?
This provision meets requirements Children arrive at the club eager to see what activities are on offer. Staff warmly welcome the children and explain what is available throughout the session.
Children respond positively to the staff and enjoy telling them about their day at school. Staff have well-established rules and routines in place to help children to be safe, secure and healthy. Children know and understand the rules and routines, and follow them well.
Staff support the very youngest children when they ask for help or support with routine tasks, such as finding a place to sit at teatime. Staff give children support and encouragement as they play. Fo...r example, when children want to play with balloons, staff join in with the games and help children to make up rules for the games they create.
Older children take care of the younger children, making sure they can join in if they wish and making sure they do not miss out.
What does the early years setting do well and what does it need to do better?
Since the last inspection, leaders and managers have worked hard to address the weaknesses that were identified. Leaders have devised a new system for children's arrival and departure that means the security gate is locked throughout the sessions and only opened when staff are at the gate at pre-determined times.
The provider has supplied Ofsted with the details of all committee members, so that a full range of suitability checks can be completed on each individual. Risk assessments are in place and effective.Staff have improved their knowledge and understanding of a range of safeguarding subjects.
Alongside having a good understanding of the signs and symptoms of abuse, they now have a greater knowledge of matters, such as female genital mutilation, county lines and the 'Prevent' duty.Staff make sure that children are consulted about the activities they want to do while they are at the club. Staff have a theme-based plan to bring extra interest to the activities.
Children enjoy the planned activities, but also become engrossed in their independent play, commenting that they enjoy drawing and making models from recycled boxes.Staff treat the children with respect and model how to behave towards other people. Children's behaviour towards each other, staff and the club resources shows that they learn from staff.
The younger children work well together to play and share resources. For example, two children playing dressing up negotiate a change of the clothes they are wearing without the need for support from an adult. They help each other with fastenings and happily chat as they swap clothes.
On the few occasions that children need to be reminded about how their actions affect others, staff do this sensitively.Children learn about life outside of their families and community. Staff use fun activities, such as baby shower parties, to celebrate special occasions with the children.
They help children to learn about a range of cultural and faith celebrations through creative and food activities.Staff use the indoor and outdoor space well to give children the opportunity to be active and energetic. Indoors, children dance and play games.
Outdoors, they play in the dark, using torches to explore. Staff provide quiet spaces for children to enjoy some time to relax after a busy day at school. Meals are nutritious and include foods, such as chick pea curry, cheesy pasta and a range of fresh fruit and vegetables to snack on.
Staff make sure that they know what children are learning about in school, so that they can have conversations with the children and include fun activities that are linked to school-based learning.

The arrangements for safeguarding are effective.There is an open and positive culture around safeguarding that puts children's interests first.
