Type A101216.3(b)
The licensee may use teacher aides in a teacher-child ratio of one teacher and one aide for every 15 children in attendance. This requirement is not met as evidenced during LPA's inspection, there were 20 children in care with only one teacher and one aid. This poses an immediate health and safety risk to children in care.
