A new shorter, less repetitive SEF on its way

Shorter SEF! That would be great and I might actually do the electronic one then. I've done a paper, on-going working SEF since our inspection in 2005 and never saw the need for the on-line version, just a lot of re-typing for the sake of it. Our recent Inspector liked it but did say it does help if they can see the electronic version before the visit! She had looked at our website which is basically our comprehensive prospectus, registration forms, policies and procedures, and photos of the setting and children's displays which I think helped too.
