This provision is good • The new manager is qualified and provides good support for the staff team.

Staff have worked hard since the last inspection. The provider now has a suitable understanding of things that must be notified to Ofsted. • Staff organise the environment well and provide children with a rich range of experiences.

Children are able to make decisions about their play and become independent. • Children have fun and really enjoy the time they spend at this friendly club. Staff establish strong relationships with the children and join in activities with them.

Children show that they are confident and communicate their preferences well. • Partnerships... with parents are good. Parents compliment the staff on the range of activities they offer and the caring service they provide for their children.

• Staff provide children with opportunities to be active and they enjoy a good variety of sports and physical activities. For example, children enjoy playing football with their friends in the sports hall, and others negotiate space well on the scooters outside. • Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and their families are supported effectively.

Staff are aware of children's additional needs and the agreed strategies to support them. • The manager and staff work closely together and support each other well. Staff are deployed well to enable them to care for and supervise children effectively.

• Partnerships with the host school, local schools and other early years settings that children also attend are not yet fully in place to complement children's interests and skills even further. • There are arrangements in place to monitor the practice of the staff and the deputy manager. However, supervisory sessions do not yet include the new manager, to help raise the quality of the club's practice to a higher level.
