SCHOOLS watchdog Ofsted has downgraded a nursery because it has too few multi-cultural resources in its play area.
Stunned staff were also rebuked for not using self-evaluation forms well enough but were praised for the bond they have with the children.
The pre-school centre was rated as “requiring improvement” in Ofsted’s latest report. It claimed that children’s understanding of the world was not being developed.
Angry parents protested at what they saw as unfairness and a case of political correctness gone mad. One mother said: “It’s ridiculous that a superb nursery is being downgraded over something as silly as this.”
Another disgusted parent said: “They are being ticked off for not filling in self-assessment forms well enough. Yet they are highly praised for how they look after the children and how they bond with them. That to me is far more important than filling in a few official forms.
Ofsted inspector Clair Stocking told staff: “There are few multi-cultural resources, particularly in the role play area, that reflect a range of cultures and backgrounds to promote understanding of the world.”
The overwhelming majority of under-fives at Rascals Childcare centre in Rayleigh, Essex, are from a white British background but parents said staff were “constantly doing projects” to teach about Diwali and other world religious festivals.
Owner Nicola Martin said the nursery believed it made enough efforts to teach children about multi-culturalism and even had a Chinese New Year display on its wall when the inspection was carried out.
She said: “We have facilities for teaching multi-culturalism. We have posters and puzzles depicting other backgrounds. We hand out multi-cultural food. We just didn’t have all our multi-cultural posters out in that area on the day of the inspection. None of the parents have raised concerns.
