Does anyone know if the SEF will be replacing the operational plan because the more i look at it, the more it looks like my op plan, just without the evidence. I was thinking of placing the completed hard copy ( when I get round to it) in the appropriate sections of my op plan with the relevant evidence (photos, policies, documentation, questionaires etc.) what do you think?

HI, hmmmm, took the decision to work from home today and get on with the SEF, how long is it LOL, in know i can waffle but im still only just done the five outcomes (kind of halfway through) and have been at it all day. granted it does take some thinking about and i have found it a useful excercise just did not expect it to take so long. I think that the nursery owners think it will be all done in a day, oh how wrong.... plus it would help if it automatically carried out a spell check for you. how long did it take you all?, or is that a question that merits the answer of 'how long is a piece of string' Dawn

Hi all I've never started a topic so here goes..... I work at a pre-school and have a good relationship with our local childminder.She has recently had her inspection which was "good". When she asked why she hadn't achieved outstanding the inspector told her she wasn't authorised to give that grade. Has anyone else had this experiance and does this mean they know how they are going to grade you before hand? To me this opens up all sorts of theories.

Hi New to forum and was wondering if anyone had experience of when Inspectors visit settings following changes within. I took over as Supervisor in November and have only just received an expensive health report from the doctor to send on to Ofsted so all the formalities have been completed from my end. I understand that there are triggers for when Ofsted could carry out inspections and one of them is change of Manager. This has really put the willies up me as I'm in the thick of reviewing the policies and procedures that should have been done last year before I took over. I feel completely overwhelmed with it all and lack substantial support from the r…

Well she finally arrived and will let us know the verdict on Friday, after meeting other staff and seeing some more Learning Journeys/Development records. Wish we could also evaluate, she didn't even have our correct phone number! Feel scarily calm, there must be something wrong with me!!! Rachel
