p.1

Leadership and governance Urgent improvement

There are weaknesses in the childminder's practice that impact negatively on the safety of children. Suitability checks relating to household members and regular visitors are not being carried out in accordance with early years foundation stage (EYFS) requirements. Furthermore, there remains a lack of understanding and implementation of the EYFS notification requirements, despite this being raised as an action at the childminder's previous inspection. These breaches of the 'Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage' compromise the childminder's ability to keep children safe and places them at potential risk of harm.

Leadership and governance Urgent improvement

Since the last inspection, the childminder has improved her knowledge of the learning and development requirements of the EYFS. Through discussion, she has demonstrated how she plans an ambitious and personalised curriculum for all children in her care, including those who face barriers to their learning.

About this inspection

There were no early years children present at the time of this inspection. The findings in this report are based on evidence gathered from discussions with leaders and an inspection of the premises, equipment, and any relevant documentation. When there are no early years children present, inspectors only evaluate and grade leadership and governance as there is no reliable evidence on which to assess the impact on children of other evaluation areas.
