Leadership & governance
B
"Since the onsite visit the service has provided ERO with evidence that shows that it has addressed the following non-compliances: information is provided to parents about the amount and details of the expenditure of any Ministry of Education funding received by the service [GMA3] processes are in place for the reviewing of the services operation policies and procedures [GMA6] annual budget guiding financial expenditure includes staffing costs [GMA9] equipment, premises and facilities are checked on every day of operations for hazards to children and further monitoring occurs through monthly checks [HS12] medicines are now stored safely out of reach of children [HS28]."

Leadership demonstrated responsive action to address non-compliances post-review.
