Ofsted takes action after Carlton nursery 'incident' where child left building

Ofsted has taken action to ensure children are safe after a child 'was able to leave a Nottinghamshire nursery unattended'. The education watchdog confirmed it had been made aware of an 'incident' where a child had managed to exit the Little Owls nursery in First Avenue, Carlton, unattended on Tuesday, May 2.

Parents contacted Nottinghamshire Live sharing their shock and disbelief. When Little Owls nursery was approached over these claims staff declined to comment on the incident.

However, Nottinghamshire Live has seen a message sent to parents after the incident. It states: "Firstly we would like to thank all parents for their quick response in collecting children from nursery this afternoon.
