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 10 July 2025, we received concerns that the provider was not meeting requirements relating to supporting and understanding children's behaviour, training and skills, and the supervision of staff.

Summary of outcome

On 1 September 2025, we carried out a regulatory visit. We found the provider was not meeting one of the requirements. We have issued an action for the provider to take. In addition, during the visit, we found that the provider had failed to notify Ofsted of a significant event, which is a requirement of their registration. Through discussions with leaders, they demonstrate an increased understanding of notifications. As such, on this occasion, Ofsted is taking no further action in relation to this.
