Our reference EY451109/ 6092645
On 9 July 2025, 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.
p.1
Our reference EY451109/ 6092645
On 6 August 2025, we carried a regulator visit. We found that the provider had not met all the actions set in the welfare requirements notice. The provider had improved risk assessment and supervision of children around mealtimes to ensure children's safety. We also found that staff had improved their knowledge of how to handle children and manage their behaviour appropriately. The designated safeguarding lead now understands what their role and responsibilities are, and accidents procedures are followed consistently. However, some staff still continue to demonstrate a weak understanding of safeguarding and child protection despite having attended training recently. We have served another welfare requirements notice. This is a legal notice that requires the provider to take the action below within the timescales set out. The provider will be able to give parents further information about this.
p.1
Action needed by 20 August 2025
n implement effective supervision for all staff to help identify and address gaps in their safeguarding knowledge and overall practice.
p.1
Action needed by 20 August 2025
On 1 October 2025, the provider responded to the action set. We found that the provider had taken steps to improve supervision arrangements to help identify and address gaps in staff's knowledge and practice. We are satisfied the provider has met the safeguarding and welfare action raised. The provider is still registered with Ofsted.
