This provision does not meet requirements

n The childminder has not made adequate progress since the last inspection. She has not ensured she is using the most up-to-date early years statutory framework and as a result is not meeting the current requirements. n Arrangements for safeguarding are not effective. The childminder is still not clear on what an allegation made against her would be, and who to report these concerns to. Furthermore, she does not consider the impact of the language that she uses, when speaking with parents and carers about a safeguarding concern, and how this may put children at risk of further harm. n The childminder does not have a good understanding of how to teach children the skills they need to be independent and self-motivated. As a result, children are not ready for the next stage of their learning and development and for their move to school. n The childminder does not have an effective understanding of how to observe, assess

and plan activities for children. Therefore, she does not use children's starting points, interests and next steps to ensure they make progress. n The childminder has a poor understanding of how to work in partnership with parents and carers. She does not share information regularly with parents about their child's learning and development, or suggest ideas they can try at home to support their child's learning further. n The childminder does not have a process in place to support self-evaluation to enable her to identify areas for development to meet the statutory requirements. n The childminder had accessed support, however this is yet to be embedded into her practice.

p.1

This 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.
