Holmesdale Kids Club

Highlights from Latest Inspection

Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Staff plan a good range of activities that ensure children have opportunities to follow their current interests.

Consequently, children are engaged in their play and learning. • Staff are warm, caring and give priority to meeting children's individual needs. This helps children to settle in well and promotes their emotional attachment and sense of self-esteem.

• The club has established good working relationships with parents. They ensure that parents are kept informed about every aspect of their child's day and ensure that messages from school are shared. Parents comment that children enjoy attending the club and are extremely happy.

• C...hildren demonstrate good enthusiasm and develop good social skills as they interact with staff and their peers. A new key-person system helps children to settle-in and supports their emotional well-being effectively. • The manager and staff have worked together since the last inspection.

The manager has addressed the previous action and taken advice to improve the quality of the provision. It is not yet outstanding because: • Although staff undertake professional development opportunities, systems for monitoring performance to support their ongoing development are still evolving. • Staff have not fully considered ways to help children rest and play quietly when they need to.
