Ofsted closes Brighton nursery following safeguarding complaint

Happy Valley Pre School in Heath Hill Avenue has been temporarily closed by Ofsted after a safeguarding complaint was made.

Brighton & Hove Editorial7 November 2026

Nursery closure

Happy Valley Pre School in Heath Hill Avenue has been temporarily closed by Ofsted following a safeguarding complaint.

Ofsted visited the nursery on Monday after a complaint was made the previous week. Parents were informed of the temporary closure that evening.

The exact details of the complaint have not been disclosed in the source material available.

Next steps

No further information about the timeline for reopening or the outcome of Ofsted's investigation has been provided at this stage.

Safeguarding complaints at childcare settings are taken seriously by the regulator, and temporary closures can be imposed while investigations are carried out.

Parents using the nursery will be waiting for updates on when the setting may resume operations.
