LBL After School Club

LBL After School Club is wraparound provision for children who attend the nursery and school on the same site. Ofsted's June 2026 report card found a strong standard for behaviour, attitudes and establishing routines, with expected standards for children's welfare and wellbeing, inclusion, and leadership and governance. It is an after-school club, not a day nursery.

The report describes separate suitable spaces and dedicated outdoor areas for different age groups. Children use the club to see friends, choose activities and unwind after nursery or school.

Children can select what they do and spend substantial time active outdoors. The inspection records older children choosing fruit, vegetables and other nutritious snack options, while staff model respectful interaction, recognise emotions and praise positive choices. Those routines translate into cooperation, self-control and strong friendships.

For children in the early-years age range, the Early Years Foundation Stage covers learning, development and care: in everyday terms, adults support progress through play, relationships and routines. The evidence does not identify a branch-specific curriculum or session pattern. Its documented purpose is wraparound care for children already attending the on-site nursery or school rather than full-day nursery education.

Warm, trusting relationships are central. Established routines help children settle and participate, while daily team meetings set out children's needs and staff responsibilities. Ofsted found safeguarding requirements met in June 2026 and described an open culture in which concerns are identified, acted on and managed.

Staff coordinate with the nursery and school on site. For children with SEND or barriers to learning, the report describes interest-led support shaped around individual profiles. The improvement points were to make self-care independence more consistent and strengthen staff supervision and reflective feedback.

The club is registered at Martin Primary School, Plane Tree Walk, London N2 9JP, for 54 places. Published evidence does not specify accepted ages, session times, booking rules, funding arrangements or charge categories. Bring these essentials together before weighing care patterns or costs.

• Attendance fit: Pin down eligible year groups, collection arrangements, available days and the daily finish time together.
• Developing independence: On a visit, look at how younger children serve snacks and manage self-care following Ofsted's June 2026 improvement point.
• Staff reflection: Look at how supervision and feedback have developed since the inspection.

This is best suited to families seeking on-site wraparound care after nursery or school, with friendships, outdoor activity and established routines at its core. The strong behaviour finding is a clear asset. Morning, holiday and full-day patterns are not evidenced, so the actual booking model is a key decision point.
