The provision does not meet requirements

 The childminder is aware of safeguarding signs that may give cause for concern and knows that she needs to report any safeguarding matters. However, she does not know about the Local Safeguarding Children Board procedures and who to report concerns to. The childminder does not have a secure knowledge of the Prevent Duty.  The childminder does not have accurate safeguarding policies and procedures to follow, should she have a concern about a child and in the event of any allegations.

The provision does not meet requirements

There were no children present when this inspection took place. The findings in this report are based on evidence gathered from discussions with those who care for the children and an inspection of the premises, equipment and relevant documentation. Where there are no children present, no judgement is made on the quality of the early years provision as there is no reliable evidence on which to assess its impact on children. The report states whether the provider continues to meet the requirements of registration.
