Extracts from the recent Ofsted inspection in January 2023
“The children living at this home are settled and making progress. This is because they are provided with a high standard of individualised and nurturing care from the adults who look after them“.
“Children are helped to see the people who are important in their lives. Staff build positive relationships with families. One parent said, ‘Staff are brilliant, they can’t do enough for the child“.
“The manager is experienced and suitably qualified. She is committed to be a role model of positive practice and ensures that she sets clear expectations for staff. This means that children receive good-quality care from a team who are motivated and want the best outcomes for children”.
“The manager has built strong relationships with other professionals who are involved with the children. The manager and staff understand the importance of partnership working to ensure that children receive the right support. Professionals said that good communication and sharing information are strengths of this home“.
“Staff said that morale is high and that they feel supported by the manager. Records show that supervision is reflective and provides staff with the opportunity to discuss the changing risks for children and their plans“.
