She does not demonstrate a good enough understanding about the guidance that she had been given and has insufficient knowledge of how to complete the required progress check. n The childminder has no system for managing an effective two-way flow of information with other settings.

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.
