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.

Summary of outcome
On 20 November 2024, we received concerns that the provider was not meeting requirements relating to qualifications, training, support and skills, key persons, staff: child ratios and safety and suitability of premises, environment, and equipment. The provider also made a notification to Ofsted. 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.

Summary of outcome
On 5 December 2024, we carried out a regulatory visit. We found the provider was not meeting some of the requirements and had taken action to put this right. The provider had improved procedures for risk assessing and had made changes to the key-person system. However, we found the provider was not meeting one of the requirements. We have issued an action for the provider to take within the timescale set out below. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this.
