AnonyMouse_665 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 just sat down to read my post. Nice book from ofsted are you ready for your inspection (updated version). Just when I thought I was nearly at the top of the mountain of paperwork I slide back down again. Ofsted have changed the sef a new improved shorter version and easier to fill out online apparently. I spent hours at Easter fill that ******* thing out and now they change it. I does say you do not need to change it now. thats fine but at some point it will need doing. i am so fed up with paperwork. spent all day again doing stuff. anyone else had the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19782 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Hi buttercup - are you in a pre-school? My SEF is finished, but...... only in rough format, the rest of the staff must see it before I commit to Ofsted. He he, just want to make sure they recognise the pre-school I am describing!! I have been doing paperwork throughout the hols, but not concentrating too much on it each day, so it feels like I have never stopped! This is my final whole week of the holidays, so it is pretty much done. How come everyone says "do this, it will reduce your paperwork" -- it never does.

Guest Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 I just begun ours today, on the word version, be a while before I can submit it, I don't even start until we go back in september! But good to know i can partially submit bits, as Ofsted is due by end of October, so will definitly get what I have got down asap once I get back and get someone to get me the access to online...which will probably take forever as Ofsted won't know who I am and blah blah blah!! I only got the first two sections done anyway THanks for letting us know xxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_665 Posted August 24, 2009 Author Share Posted August 24, 2009 not checked website yet but if you are working on the old version it might be worth checking what has changed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_8466 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 http://ofstednews.ofsted.gov.uk/article/490 Thanks for this link, samfrostie. Did you notice the bit at the bottom where you can grade their article? Was it Outstanding/Good/Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory? Haven't noticed that before!

Guest Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Hi everyone - first post so I hope it works!!! I've just re-done our SEF - finished last night - and the online format is still the original version, so I don't think there's a new one available yet. I had no idea they were changing it - thanks for that info, I've read the article now and it kinda seems that it won't change that much - only things like layout and the leadership judgement thingy. So I'm hoping I can just submit my hours of work and the next update will be on the new form. fingers crossed anyway??!! Does anyone know any diffrent?
