Summary of outcome
On 23 March 2026, the provider responded to the actions set. We found that they had taken steps to prevent unauthorised individuals from entering the premises without prior notice. This includes installing visible signage at the setting's entrance to remind adults not to allow others access without notice. This helps to protect the safety and welfare of children. Additionally, the provider has updated job descriptions and the induction process to give staff a clearer understanding of their roles and responsibilities.
