Quality Assurance 

To meet our quality assurance checks providers must work with the LA on an annual   basis. The quality assurance includes: 

provisions to participate in an initial QA assessment before being added to the directory 
be expected to have an annual quality assurance visit from a local authority officer 
quality assurance visits will be conducted by a physical site visit, (where appropriate) 
and complete a quality assurance observation form at least annually.

Results of the LA's quality assurance will be made available to schools and commissioners, on request.
