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 11 and 17 February 2022 and 10 March 2022, we received concerns that the provider was not meeting some of these requirements. On 23 February and 22 March 2022, we carried out regulatory telephone calls with the acting manager of the setting. Following this, on 19 April 2022 we received further concerns.

p.1

Summary of outcome

We suspended the provider's registration on 20 April 2022 because we believed children may be at risk of harm. Suspension allows time for the provider to take steps to reduce or eliminate the risk of harm to children. The provider had a right to appeal against a suspension. The provider may not provide childcare for which registration is required while the suspension is in place and may commit an offence if they do so.

Summary of outcome

On 15 August 2022, we carried out a regulatory visit following a request from the provider to consider new information. We found that the provider had appointed a new management team and taken action to address the matter which led to suspension. However, we also found that prior to the appointment of the new leadership team, the provider had not ensured that all requirements were met.
