A nursery where fire exits are blocked and children ‘run around carrying hot soup’ has been rated as inadequate by Ofsted. The education watchdog found youngsters at Small World Nurseries, in Rochdale, were at risk of potential harm because of ineffective risk assessments.
Based at Tudor House, Castleton, the centre looks after nearly 70 children aged between one and four years old. Officials praised the quality of education and behaviour of youngsters following a recent inspection.
Children were said to be ‘happy and engaged’ and it was noted they had formed ‘solid, affectionate bonds’ with their staff. But inspectors rated the Manchester Road nursery as ‘inadequate’ overall, in part due to shortcomings in leadership and management.

A new report says policies and procedures around risk assessment and safeguarding were 'not well implemented', exposing children to 'potential hazards'. It adds: “Although the environment is risk assessed daily, this is not effective. Hazards such as blocked fire exits, uneven surfaces and children running with hot liquids are not identified. This leaves children vulnerable to potential, avoidable injuries as the premises are not always suitable and safe.”
The report describes how the outdoor area at the nursery becomes slippery and, due to the uneven ground, children ‘fall repeatedly’. It continues: “Additionally, children are given hot soup to drink outdoors. They are not given appropriate direction on how to drink this safely. This means that children run around on wet, slippery ground carrying hot soup, posing a risk to themselves and others.”
