Nursery where children were 'at risk' closes following damning Ofsted report

A nursery in Urmston where children were 'at risk' has closed after being deemed 'inadequate' by inspectors. The Ofsted report for Davyhulme Day Nursery revealed internal fire doors did not work properly following a visit on September 21.

"These doors do not close or have to be forcefully opened," the report by inspector Suzanne Fenwick said. "These, along with other hazards to children's health, such as the cleaning supplies cupboard being left open, are not adequately risk assessed."

Ofsted said it intended to take 'enforcement action', following the inspection of the facility. However, the nursery has told the Local Democracy Reporting Service that it has now closed.
