CHILDREN’S NURSERY FOUND WANTING IS NOW COMPLYING WITH REGULATIONS

A children’s nursery has been ordered to take drastic measures to comply legal requirements for early years provision.

Evergreen Children’s Day Nursery in Swinton has successfully implemented measures set by Ofsted following an inspection in June.

The facility on Manchester Road was served with a ‘welfare requirements notice requiring it to undertake a series of actions.

It was told to ‘implement effective systems to ensure all staff working with children are suitable; to ensure all designated safeguarding leads receive training enabling them to identify, understand and respond appropriately to possible signs of abuse and neglect and to provide support, advice and guidance as required; and to ensure children’s behaviour is managed effectively’.

The Ofsted report said the focus of its visit was to check whether the provider had met the safeguard and welfare actions raised following an inspection on June 23.

“We found that the provider had updated their recruitment procedures to ensure all staff have effective suitability checks in place prior to working with children,” the report said.

“We are satisfied that the provider has met the safeguarding and welfare actions raised.”

Evergreen Children’s Day Nursery has been contacted for comment.
