Requirements & recommendations
1. By 26 September 2025, the provider must ensure children are safe and receive high quality experiences at all times.
To do this the provider must, at a minimum: ensure that at all times suitably qualified and competent staff are working in the nursery in such numbers as are appropriate for the health, welfare and safety of children. This is in order to comply with section 7(1)(a) of the Health and Care (Staffing) (Scotland) Act 2019. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS), which state that: ‘My needs are met by the right number of people’ (HSCS 3.15).
1. To support children's wellbeing, the provider should ensure personal planning approaches improve so that they set out clearly how children's care and support needs will be met. This would include but not be limited to: a) ensuring personal plans reflect children's current needs b) ensuring strategies of support for individual children are developed and implemented by staff c) ensuring all staff are knowledgeable and understand the information within the personal plans and use this to effectively meet each child’s needs. This is to ensure care and support is consistent with the Care Inspectorate document 'Guide for providers on personal planning'. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS), which state that:
'My personal plan (sometimes referred to as a care plan) is right for me because it sets out how my needs will be met, as well as my wishes and choices' (HSCS 1.15).
