Hospital nursery reopens

A hospital nursery which temporarily closed after an Ofsted inspection flagged safeguarding issues, was expected to reopen today (Wed).

The Toybox Day Nursery had its registration suspended for a week, to allow urgent staff training to take place.

The setting, open to the children of up to 4,000 members of staff at Salisbury NHS Foundation Trust in Wiltshire, was previously rated good following a 2014 Ofsted inspection.

A Trust spokesman said, ‘[The] Trust has responded positively to address the issues raised by Ofsted following its unannounced visit on Tuesday, 14 June 2016, of the Toybox Day Nursery.  

‘Following a re-inspection of the nursery, which provides nursery support to staff, Ofsted has lifted its suspension of the service and this will resume on Wednesday, 22 June 2016.’
