Summary of outcome
We received a written response from the provider confirming the steps they had taken to meet the requirements. This includes changes to the records of attendance so that there is greater clarity around which staff and leaders are present and caring for children. In addition, the provider has taken steps to ensure that the qualification requirements are met at all times, and is in the process of recruiting more qualified staff. We were satisfied that the provider had taken appropriate action to meet the requirements. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
