I have used this provider for less than 6 months

My 4 year old grandson got his head busted open by a 9year old child. Which they should of never been outside together at the same time. We had to get him medical attention and get his head glued together. And when I questioned them on Friday morning about why the older kids was allowed to be with the smaller kids and I told them I was informed that the kids are supposed to be outside by age groups. And I would be calling Dhs to see if it was allowed. And I was gonna turn in the incident . And now as of Monday my grandson supposedly has had bad behavior since the day he started so they kicked him out today. But everyday I picked him up I was told he had a good day no issues by the teacher and the front desk lady when she was present. But all of a sudden since I told them I was gonna be calling and finding out the rules about age groups being together. That they could possibly be in trouble. So they feel threatened and decided to figure out a way to kick him out. I haven’t been talked to one time about a behavior problem.
