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.

p.1

Summary of outcome

On 30 November 2022, the provider notified us of a child being able to open a door and leave the premises. The 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 any significant event which is likely to affect the suitability of the early years provider or any person who cares for, or is in regular contact with, children on the premises to look after children.

p.1

Summary of outcome

On 8 December 2022, we carried out a regulatory telephone call. We found the provider was not meeting some of the requirements and had taken action to put this right. The provider completed their own investigation and took further steps to ensure the security of the provision. Door locks were updated, and doors kept locked, with keys only being left accessible to staff. A keypad entry lock was also added to an internal door. Discussions were held with staff regarding the rigorous supervision of all children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities. By taking these steps the provider is reassured that children's safety is more effectively maintained.

Summary of outcome

The provider will be able to give parents further information about this. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
