## About this day nursery

Brookside Out of School Care Club, established in 1999, is an all-year childcare setting in Clitheroe for children aged 2-11 years. 30pm in school holidays, the club offers a range of activities.

Children separate with ease from parents and enjoy activities, demonstrating they feel safe and happy. Staff praise their efforts and achievements, supporting confidence and self-esteem.

The club focuses on a planned curriculum targeting all seven areas of learning, with activities tailored to individual needs, focusing on independence, communication, and listening. While the setting currently 'Requires Improvement' as per its 17/09/2025 Ofsted inspection, leaders are proactive in identifying and supporting children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), making referrals to outside agencies and utilising funding effectively to meet their unique requirements.

The outdoor environment is well-utilised daily to enhance learning and enjoyment, with children engaging in physical play and visiting the on-site forest school. Leaders also organise educational visits to local amenities like the library, market, and park, and arrange town centre walks to help children learn about different cultures.

Strong partnerships with parents ensure they are kept informed of their children's learning and progress. However, the setting is working on improving consistent support for children to manage their behaviour and enhancing staff deployment to ensure all children progress well.

What it's like

Children separate from their parents and carers with ease and enjoy a range of activities. Children demonstrate they feel safe and are happy, and staff praise their efforts and achievements. However, children do not benefit from consistent support to learn how to manage their behaviour, which impacts the effectiveness of some learning experiences.
