Inspectors sent in to observe a nursery had to step in to ensure hungry children were given something to eat after staff were unable to cope.
The Pear Tree Nursery, West Road, Haddington, in East Lothian. was visited by inspectors just weeks after it reopened following an E-Coli scare.
But a damning report on the nursery has revealed that during the visit inspectors had to intervene as children were left hungry and they gave it the lowest possible grade of just one (unsatisfactory) for its care.
