Following the inspection, we served a welfare requirements notice on 8 June 2023. This is a legal notice that requires the provider to take the actions below within the timescales set out.

We found that the staff now have procedures to follow if they need to physically intervene to keep children safe and they now record these incidents. Staff now make sure that all children are given first-aid treatment if they require it. Leaders have improved risk assessments. However, staff did not demonstrate a good understanding of risk assessment and we issued another welfare requirement notice on 15 June 2023.

Summary of outcome

On 28 June 2023, we carried out a regulatory visit. The focus of the visit was to check whether the provider had met the safeguarding and welfare, raised at their last inspection and subsequent visit. We found that the provider had improved support for staff to ensure that they can fulfil their roles and responsibilities. The provider has worked with staff to make changes to the support for children with SEND and the adjustments made have had a positive impact on children's experiences. All risk assessments have been updated and staff now ensure that children are seated when they are eating.
