Summary of outcome

All early years providers must meet the legal requirements in the 'Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage', which you can find at www.gov.uk/government/publications/early-years-foundation-stage-framework . If we find that a provider is not meeting the requirements, we can take action to ensure they put matters right. On 3 February 2020, we received concerns that this provider was not meeting some of these requirements. On 3 February 2020, we also received a notification from the provider regarding an incident that had occurred. This notification means that the provider met their legal responsibility as set out in the early years foundation stage safeguarding and welfare requirements, to notify Ofsted of any significant event which is likely to affect the suitability of the early years provider to look after children.
