p.1

Summary of outcome

We found the provider had met some of the actions set in the welfare requirements notice, but not others. The provider had implemented more training for staff to enable them to support children with special educational needs and/or disabilities. They had also ensured all staff had the correct training to be included in ratios. The provider had not ensured that supervisions met the requirements of the Statutory framework for the early years foundation stage. Also, while staff had received more support with their professional development, learning experiences were not always high quality for children.

Summary of outcome

On 13 October 2026, we carried out a regulatory visit. The focus of the visit was to check whether the provider had met the safeguarding and welfare actions, raised at their last regulatory event.

p.2

Summary of outcome

We found the provider has introduced a new format for supervisions, which includes opportunities to discuss child protection concerns. Leaders ensure these are carried out frequently and they are utilised to provide ongoing wellbeing support and coaching and mentoring for the team. The provider has sourced external training programmes and support. They have implemented bespoke training to meet the needs of the team. Leaders have upskilled their own knowledge to enable them to more readily support the wider team. Staff are offering more high-quality opportunities for the children that support their engagement and next steps in development. We found that the provider has ensured all staff have been trained to support and understand children's behaviour. Staff can now talk about considering what children are trying to tell them with their behaviour. They utilise positive reinforcement and specific praise, and have spaces for children to regulate their

own behaviour. They also redirect some behaviours, such as throwing or pushing, to an activity that allows them to fulfil this in a safe and more appropriate way.
