sallye86 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Hello We have a lot of students in our setting, some good and some bad. One of them has very little knowledge of our policies and procedures, not from receiving information but refusing to take on board and she has admitted that she does not need to know this stuff because it isn't in her course.....weird! But what my question is.... When we have an inspection, will the inspector ask students questions about policies and procedures who are not worked into the ratio???? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimms o'clock? Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 I think I would be concerned if this was a students attitude in my setting. I would contact the college to remind them that I'm happy to have their students BUT any placed with us have to be aware of and work within ALL of our policies and procedures. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catma Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Yup - I'd be more worried about how you deal with her ego to be honest!! Cx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our last set of students said they didn't need to learn how to change nappies as they were going to work in a school! Employers have now been invited to set up a forum to help increase students learning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinnybird Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Hi i dont know if this is useful or not but when we had our inspection last year the inspector asked two work experience students from the local High school about our polcies and procedures. The poor students had been on site for a whole two hours but they were able to talk about what to do in the event of an emergency, accident or safeguarding issue. we always give students a basic talk about policies and procedures and then present them with a copy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finleysmaid Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 all my students have induction training that covers the points mentioned above...i always tell them that if ofsted comes in they will expect them to know and they will ask them questions...bizarrely i have never had any of them in when i have been inspected. Though i have had early years advisors in who scarpered pretty quick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
