Revealed: The nurseries failing Scotland’s children

Thousands of Scottish children are being put at risk by nurseries and childminders that are allowed to remain in business despite repeatedly failing to meet basic standards of childcare.

Reports show 224 nurseries and 111 childminders were ranked as weak or unsatisfactory in at least one category during their most recent inspection by the Care Commission.
