My DD nursery has dress up women’s fancy hats and shoes from charity shops. Today she was injured by hat pin that was left inside one. It was a large pin that secured a decoration on the hat. Would you report this to ofsted?

If a child was injured with a sharp object like that at home and presented to a medical professional I would expect there would be some kind of contact from either a HV and/or SS for a quick follow up to make sure the home environment is safe, don’t see why this would be any different and you could argue that a nursery should actually be safer than a home !

It’s a hat pin, not a machete…I can guarantee you that SS and HV would have absolutely 0 interest 😂

What are you hoping to achieve OP?
Normal people make mistakes.

Ok, maybe odsted was over reaction. But they state that they check and risk assess everything but this has been missed and it could have caused a bad injury

I don't think even the most careful risk assessment would come up with this as a potential problem.

Fucking hell. Why would your first instinct be to complain to an official body, rather than to mention it to staff so they can double check these things in future? Are you just wanting to be vicious?
