Full report (PDF, Tusla)

##### Regulation 9 — Management and recruitment

- (d) The required police vetting for the one staff member who lived outside the State for longer than 6 months as an adult was not available on file

- Registered provider applied for vetting for staff member who lived in UK, we received email to say this has been processed and was posted on 31st Oct. Ensure adequate read through of CV’s to make sure documents are up to date

##### Regulation 16 — Record in relation to pre-school service

- (1) (h) It was observed upon the inspectors arrival at 9.28am that there were 16 children present in Seomra Dearg. Upon review of the attendance register at 10.24am the inspector found that there were only 15 children’s details completed in the attendance register. The inspector notified the person in charge at this time that there were only 15 children recorded on the attendance register but 16 children were present. The person in charge reviewed the records and found that one child had not been recorded in the attendance register and confirmed that the child had commenced in the service on 01 September 2025

- Missing name from attendance register was added immediately, along with parent details etc. We explained to inspector that this child only confirmed their return to pre-school after we had completed the attendance register details, which would explain the over sight. Register will be checked by more than 1 member of staff before we commence our year start every August

##### Regulation 23 — Safeguarding health, safety and welfare of child

- General Safety: 1. The premises was not appropriately secured to restrict unauthorised persons from gaining access to the preschool service. Doors leading from the first-floor hallway into the toilet area and on into Seomra Buí were not secured to prevent unauthorised access to these areas. The door in Seomra Dearg, when staff take children to the toilet was not secured to prevent unauthorised access to this room. 2. In respect of 4 out of 5 staff members, the service did not demonstrate compliance with the Early Years Inspectorate Regulatory Notice requiring services to renew Garda vetting every three years, as a period in excess of 3 years had lapsed since their Garda vetting disclosures were issued

- Corrective & Preventive Action General Safety: 1. The service has consulted with the GAA premises caretaker to get permission to add a lock system to the doors. We have a locksmith coming next week to advise on what will work best. 2. The renewal vetting process has been started for the 3 registered providers with Tusla and 1 staff member with ECI

Found compliant: Regulation 11, 19, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29.
