The Badger Club

Highlights from Latest Inspection

Summary of key findings for parents

The provision is good • Staff ask parents for detailed information about their children's individual needs when they first start at the setting. They keep parents well informed about children's daily activities. Parents and children speak very positively about the setting, the activities provided and the caring staff.

• Children's behaviour is good. All children are polite and respectful of one another. Older children are very mindful of those that are younger and make sure they include them in club activities.

For instance, younger children are delighted to take part in a building competition organised by the older children. • The staff team is knowledgeable and passion...ate about the club. The manager and staff have worked hard since the last inspection to build a strong vision for the club.

They have each taken responsibility to develop individual areas of expertise to support ongoing developments to practice. • Staff plan interesting activities that meet the needs of all children. For instance, children are highly engaged and motivated during den building activities.

They work collaboratively to design and build their dens. It is not yet outstanding because: • On occasions, staff do not consistently implement ways in which to reduce noise levels to allow children who wish to play quietly to fully concentrate. • Newly developed procedures to supervise staff and provide constructive feedback are not fully embedded to improve the overall quality of practice to outstanding levels.
