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--2 . If we find that a provider is not meeting the requirements, we can take action to ensure they put matters right.

Summary of outcome

On 21 September 2020 Ofsted received concerns that this provider was not meeting some of these requirements. We received additional concerns on 22 and 23 September 2020. On 25 September 2020 we carried out an unannounced visit to the provider to discuss the concerns and have issued a Welfare Requirements Notice. This is a legal notice that requires the provider to take the actions below within the timescales set out. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this. The provider remains registered with Ofsted.

Summary of outcome

ensure that records are easily accessible and available by 21 October 2020. On 22 October 2020 we conducted an unannounced visit to monitor the above actions. We found that the provider had organised her documentation and records and these were available to Ofsted during the visit. Therefore, this action has been met. However, the provider has failed to meet the other actions previously issued. Ofsted has reissued the Welfare Requirements Notice, which the provider is required to meet by 30 October 2020.

Summary of outcome

We also found that the provider had failed to notify Ofsted of a significant event, which is a requirement of their registration. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.

p.2

Summary of outcome

On 3 November 2020 we conducted an unannounced visit to monitor the above actions. We found that the nursery was closed to children so we were unable to monitor steps taken to address the actions. Therefore, Ofsted will continue to monitor. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.

p.2

Summary of outcome

On 9 December 2020 we conducted an unannounced visit to monitor the above actions. The nursery is currently open to children of critical and key worker parents only. However, we found that the staff to child ratios are met and appropriate staffing arrangements have been addressed to ensure that they meet the individual needs of all children. We found that the provider has made necessary changes to ensure that children are cared for in a stimulating environment. Children have appropriate access to activities and resources that interest and engage them. The provider has implemented regular staff supervisions and appropriate training opportunities. This has ensured that staff are equipped with the knowledge and understanding they require and are able to discuss issues, identify solutions and receive coaching to improve their personal effectiveness. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
