Summary of outcome
All early years providers must meet the legal requirements in the Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage . 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 13 December 2023, we carried out an inspection and found the provider was not meeting some of these requirements. The overall effectiveness of the provision was judged to be inadequate. The inspection report sets out the actions the provider was required to take to meet the requirements by 16 January 2024.
p.1
Summary of outcome
On 22 January 2024 we carried out a regulatory visit. The focus of the visit was to check whether the provider had met the safeguarding and welfare actions and learning and development actions, raised at their last inspection.
p.1
Summary of outcome
We found that the provider had improved their knowledge of local safeguarding procedures, including action to take in the event of an allegation being made against themselves or a member of their household. They had also improved procedures to supervise children while in their care and had updated hygiene procedures to promote children's good health. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
