Hi all, I wondered if you could give me some tips. I run a sessional pre-school and we had our Ofsted inspector today! She seems very nice and has told us there is nothing to worry about with what she has seen. She is due back on Monday for the education side and I wondered if anyone can give me some tips on exactly what she will be looking for or things to make sure she sees. I am glad that it is nearly all over but really worried about the outcome, please help. Carol

Apparently we …

Tuesday morning, I was in tears, hubby seriously ill and I was so run down I went to work without the usual warpaint on - never been out without makeup for about 3 years. Turned up a work tearful, Ofsted standing at the door!!!!! Lovely lady, who let me go home early. I rushed back, and got the hubby sorted out. Went in next day,got the feedback and was pleased with a 'satisfactory' under conditions where I had been unable to explain everything to her and am constrained by using a shared Church Hall without an outdoors or even satisfactory toilet area. That night, I fell into a deep sleep, woke in the night and broke two toes on walking into a washing basket (I wa…
