On 21 August 2019, 8 November 2019, 19 November 2019, 13 February 2020 and 22 September 2020 we received concerns that this provider was not meeting some of these requirements. On 24 August 2020 and 24 September 2020 the provider notified us of action they had taken in relation to staffing in the setting. This notification means that the provider met their legal responsibility as set out in the Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage to notify Ofsted of significant events.
