Safeguarding

A local review of recent Ofsted inspections highlighted a couple of issues that I would like to bring to your attention.

The review has identified that providers are not routinely identifying who has PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY for a child and who has LEGAL CONTACT with the child.  This information is a specific legal requirement (EYFS, 2008 Safeguarding and promoting children's welfare) and must be collected in advance of a child being admitted to the provision.  This information needs to be added to your admission forms.
