Alexandra After School Care Scheme

Highlights from Latest Inspection

Summary of key findings for parents

This provision is good Staff provide children with a good range of activities and engaging experiences, indoors and outdoors, aimed at children's different ages, interests and abilities. The atmosphere at the club is friendly and relaxed, and children have fun. The manager and staff have worked very hard to address the actions and recommendation raised at the last inspection.

Significant improvements have been made to raise the quality of the provision. Parents speak very highly about the setting and staff. They feel their children are safe and that staff attend to their children's needs well.

They say that their children love to attend and that they really enjoy their t...ime at the setting. The well-established partnerships with teaching staff at the host school complement the ways that staff offer continuity for children's care. Staff help children to manage their behaviour well.

Children play cooperatively together and develop positive attitudes towards others. It is not yet outstanding because: At times, staff do not ensure that children have a comfortable area to sit and relax, for example, when they look at books. Leaders are still at the early stages of embedding their procedures for staff supervision to enhance the already good practice of staff and to develop children's overall experiences further.
