This provider received a compliance action notice on 26 January 2026 following a regulatory telephone call triggered by the provider's own notification on 17 December 2025 regarding information and record-keeping failures. The inspector found the provider was not meeting statutory requirements related to children's privacy and confidentiality, specifically concerning the posting of photographs on platforms without appropriate safeguards. While the provider has since rectified procedures and taken corrective action, this represents a significant safeguarding breach that temporarily resulted in 'Not Met' status. The provider remains registered but must demonstrate sustained compliance and embed robust privacy protocols across all staff. This analysis maps findings to the November 2025 framework, treating the compliance action as a safeguarding failure requiring immediate and comprehensive remediation.
