That Man.

[larnielass]

So Mr Gove may change the inspection notification for schools to little or no notice given before an Inspector knocks on the door. Welcome to the world of Early Years!

there you go Hali

At the risk of upsetting Rea for once he has actually said something I could agree with. As pvi full day care and sessional settings are now pretty much the only settings having no notice inspections I think it's high time that the playing field was levelled in this respect - either give notice to everyone or no notice to everyone

[Rea]

I agree, but have to say it through my teeth

[SueJ]

I hear what you are saying Rea - I guess it's a bit like the monkeys and the typewriters and shakespear's plays - if he says enough things eventually there will be a nugget worth listening to

[sunnyday]

Still like to see him gone

[Panders]

Don't have much time for the man, but would like a return to notice of inspection for all. It's all well and good being expected to plan everything as your best day ever but that brings huge pressure with it, sometimes it has to be 'best under the circumstances' and a little leeway offered wouldn't go amiss either

Signed.

As a former school governor and an EYT in a PVI I also think that no one should have notice of inspection- it limits what you can 'fudge' on the day.
