Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good • The provision is bright, welcoming and secure. Staff provide a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities for children to choose from.

Children socialise and relax before and after the school day. • Staff make positive links with parents and share information with them about their child each day. Parents are happy with the quality of the provision and children comment about how much they enjoy attending the sessions.

• The manager uses regular supervision sessions with staff to agree any training needs. This helps to improve staff practice and provide quality experiences for children. • An effective key-person system is in place to ensure that c...hildren's individual needs are met.

Children settle well from the start and form secure attachments with staff. • The manager uses self-evaluation to identify any areas of weakness. She includes the views of children and staff as she shares ideas with them about ways to improve the provision.

• Staff do not always provide enough opportunities for children to recognise and appreciate the differences and similarities between people and communities. • Although the quality of staff practice is good overall, some staff are not as skilled as others in engaging children in activities. As a result, children are not always encouraged and challenged to explore their ideas further.
