Allsorts in Stafford provides care and education for children aged from two to ten years. The setting operates all year round, offering before- and after-school club sessions during term time, and holiday club sessions from 7am until 6pm. The provision is registered to accept tax-free childcare payments. Ofsted inspected the setting in November 2022 and judged it to be Good overall.
The inspector's report noted that children arrive happy, settle quickly and form positive attachments with the staff. Children are provided with enjoyable mark-making and fine motor skill activities. They also have opportunities to develop balance and spatial awareness through group games and exercises in an outdoor area and a school hall. The report mentioned that older children attending the club are able to choose activities and socialise with friends, and that children of all ages make good progress.
