##### Regulation 10 — Policies, procedures etc. of pre-school service

- The following policies and procedures were available and reviewed but lacked some of the information required: • Recruitment policy • Policy on health eating The service did not have the following policies and procedures which were required for the service: • Policy on accidents and incidents, • Risk management policy, • Supervision of staff policy It is acknowledged that some of the information required for an accident and incident policy and a risk management policy were contained within the services safety statement but as it did not contain all the information required nor detail the procedures to be followed, it cannot be considered to replace these required policies and procedures

- The service have updated all policies required and forwarded them on to the inspectorate. The service will monitor and update all policy requirements as needed

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

- (1)(k) The service did not record every incident that occurred in the service on the accident and incident forms. Staff stated that incidents were usually communicated to parents verbally at collection time but that a written record was not maintained. For example, if a child ate or drank something that they were not allowed due to allergies or cultural reasons, there was no record that this had occurred, that parents had been informed or that measures were put in place to insure against a re-occurrence

- The service has an incident book placed in each room. Any incidents at all will be monitored and parents will be informed. These are separate to our accident book for the service

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

- Safe sleep: A member of staff does not stay in the sleep room with the children while they sleep. As the children sleep on camp beds, from which they can get up and wander around once awake, it is required that the children be supervised by direct observation from a member of staff while they sleep. Action submitted by the Registered Provider

- Safe sleep: The service will ensure one staff member remains in the sleep room with the sleeping children at all times. The service are confident that leaving a staff member stay with the sleeping children will remedy the issue found and prevent reoccurrence. Summary Comment All evidence submitted meets the requirements of the Child Care Act 1991 (Early Years Services) Regulations 2016

Found compliant: Regulation 9, 11, 15, 19, 22, 27, 32.
