I think mine is definitely along the right lines then, but I especially like the way you have emboldened the key points you are making in each paragraph - I'll alter that on mine, just to make it clearer Gruffalo2 :( :wacko: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 As others have said, thank you very much for sharing, this makes really interesting reading and happily we're not totally off track with our own draft sef!! I was interested to see that you rated yourselves 'good' in most areas and only 'satisfactory' I think in one area, but were still able to get an 'outstanding' from Ofsted. This has been worrying me, as I think there are very few settings that would be bold enough to grade themselves as 'outstanding' in their SEFs. Many congratulations, you clearly do great work for your local community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Just wanted to add my thanks for uploading your outstanding SEF. It gives a clear view of what it is like in your setting, which sounds fantastic. No wonder Mrs Ofsted was deeply impressed! Maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mouseketeer Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Congrats on 'Outstanding' , SEf looks good, particularly like the 'accumulating a collection of willies for outdoor play' ! was reading somewhere about not being able to get above 'satisfactory' if SEF online not completed, spoke to someone in our area who had 'good' a couple of weeks ago theirs wasnt online, inspector did read it in hard format saying it was nice to see one as so few settings have actually done them !

Cait Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Congrats on 'Outstanding' , SEf looks good, particularly like the 'accumulating a collection of willies for outdoor play' ! How bizarre - I made exactly the same spelling mistake in mine! Sunnyday pointed it out to me and Zebedee said I should leave it and I'd know if Ofsted read it properly!

Guest Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 well done too you and your setting on your outstanding grade your sef was great I am A Childminder and our sef are the same, I must admit I had a look at our local nurserys sef and got some tips from them, i think once you read a completed one you can then start to get your head round what is expected from you. if that makes sense. So thankyou for sharing it with us and I hope that somr other childminders can also get some tips Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dottyp Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Looks like we will all be busy collecting 'willies' for the outdoor area over the summer hols Many congrats on achieving an 'outstanding' and thank you for posting your sef for all to see dottyp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Would like to add my thanks for posting your SEF on this forum. I am also planning to complete mine in the summer holidays!! Like Zillertal mentioned, I think it really helps to read a completed sef inorder to be able to evaluate our own setting and get something down in writing. Well done on your outstanding result.

Guest Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Well done on your outstanding grading. I will type mine up too and post. Although I was advised by my network coordinator to grade myself as outstanding, but not too sure about this. What do others think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 (edited) Mine told me the same and I argued the case against and she listened and agreed with my point of view. Far better for someone to say 'you are much better than you think' than 'you are not as good as you think'!

Guest Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 thank you so much x i can now get some idea of what to write! well done for your outstanding inspection-keep up the good work Carol Ps i will down load once i finally finish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I would justlike to congratulate you on your SEF form. Just viewing yours helps to piece the evidence I require to include in specific parts, that I was a little unsure of. Am revising policies and procedures at same time, so whilst doing them, am linking into my SEF form to add information. Quite handy Good luck in the future and thanks for helping me out in my hour of need! Leader of Playgroup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
