Setting

Summary of outcome

On 10 March 2011, the provider notified us of concerns they had received relating to children's individual needs not being met, and a child receiving an injury at nursery for which no accident report was completed. We needed to investigate this concern to see whether the setting was meeting the Early Years Foundation Stage welfare requirements relating to ‘suitable person’. In particular, these include a requirement that states that children must be supervised at all times. In addition we needed to investigate whether the setting was meeting the Early Years Foundation Stage welfare requirements relating to ‘organisation’. In particular, these include a requirement to ensure that effective systems are in place to ensure children's individual needs are met.

Summary of outcome

We carried out an unannounced visit to the premises on 22 March 20011 and found that on the day of the visit appropriate systems were in place to ensure that children's individual needs were met. There was no evidence that a child had received an injury for which an accident report was not completed. Although it was not part of the original complaint, we also identified that the provider had not notified us of a change to the person managing the provision, which is an offence.
