The provision does not meet requirements

 Staff do not understand the importance of supervising children and ensuring that they are within sight or hearing at all times. Staff do not consider how to keep children safe when other members of the public are using the same facilities.  The provider does not ensure that staff receive effective coaching and support. The manager and staff do not have a sufficient understanding of their roles and responsibilities or the requirements for the early years foundation stage.  The provider does not ensure that all documentation is available for inspection. Although there is evidence staff have Disclosure and Barring Service checks, other required documentation was not available to demonstrate how safe recruitment procedures are followed.  Staff do not maintain an accurate record of children's attendance.  The provider does not evaluate the setting and has failed to identify the significant breaches in requirements.

 Staff understand the importance of providing children with daily physical exercise and access to games and resources.  Staff demonstrate a suitable understanding of child protection issues and know who to go to if they have a concern about a child in their care.  Staff understand the importance of working in partnership with parents and they explain how they gather information to help them meet children's individual needs.

p.1

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.
