p.1

The provision does not meet requirements

 The manager and staff do not always identify and minimise risks to children to support their safety. This is a breach of the early years foundation stage and Childcare Register requirements.  The manager has knowledge of child protection issues and the procedures to follow should concerns arise about a child's welfare. He understands the importance of ensuring staff know their safeguarding responsibilities, including the setting's policies and procedures for the protection of children.  The manager and staff recognise the importance of working in partnership with parents and other professionals to help support continuity in children's care.  The manager and staff know how to support children to settle in and bond with their key person. For example, they find out about children's interests and plan activities that support their independent choices.  The action set at the last inspection has been met. Staff now receive regular support
