1. To improve the childminder's knowledge and skills, and to further support good outcomes for children, the childminder should access relevant training and learning opportunities on a more regular and consistent basis. This should include but is not limited to: • accessing training opportunities online • accessing Care Inspectorate Hub to develop knowledge and understanding of current national frameworks and best practice guidance to support their childminding setting. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which states that: 'I have confidence in people because they are trained, competent and skilled, are able to reflect on their practice and follow their professional codes.' (HSCS 3.14)
