Got the phone call today, considerably earlier than expected on a 3 yr cycle!

Trying to stay focused and calm now.

 

Hope everyone else has got on ok this week.

Sending you lots of good luck. We have 7 inspectors in today and tomm and all is going well so far. At least we will be able to enjoy all the xmas activities when they leave! xx

Good luck Susan - but I must say I'm alarmed by the words "considerably earlier than expected on a 3 yr cycle".

 

Don't send them in my direction, will you?

Good luck I am sure you will be fine :o

 

I am intrigued by the talk of 3 year cycle.

 

I was led to believe that when EYFS came into force in September 2008 OFSTED started a 'new regime' of inspections and 'everyone had to be done'. I was told from a few different sources that the date of our last inspection was irrelevant and to expect them anytime. This was confirmed by a preschool I know personally who got outstanding in March 2008 and got the knock on the door in November 2008 and I have heard from others. Likewise I know of people I know several who were last inspected in early 2006 and are still waiting.

 

I just concluded that there is no ryhme or reason to who they inspect when and we should just expect them when we see them! xD

Hope everyone is doing ok :o

Best of luck Susan. I will be keeping my fingers crossed for you with heartfelt sympathy.

Just in case there is any confusion Susan is in a school setting.

Good luck for your inspection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

As for the 3 year cycle........ I think everyone will be done regardless of the date of their last inspection due to the implementation of the EYFS.

 

Nursery was Ofsted'd in May 2008 (half is private)

We were done again in February 2009 when the rest of the school was done.

Only 8 months later!!!
