Helen Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 So, new Ofsted plans to leave it up to 30 months before a newly registered provider gets inspected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunnyday Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Noooooooo - how awful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narnia Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Really?? What a surprise..................................... and they will be re-inspecting any group that receives 'Inadequate' or 'Requires Improvement' from now on.......

eyfs1966 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 sorry to be selfish here, but anything that keeps them away from my door is a good thing But seriously, it does seem just so wrong that a new provision can be left status less for that lenght of time. How would that affect funding, or provision of 2 year old places? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mundia Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 So some children could spend the whole of their funded years (if funded at two) in a setting that has never been inspected and could be poor quality? That's quite worrying. Is this about inspector capacity? I wonder if the pre reg visits are going to be even more thorough? I was looking through the current OFSTED data and couldn't find anything on % of first time inspections that were good or better? Anyone else seen it at all as I am sure I have seen this in the past?

narnia Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I have mentioned before,one grop i know got Outstanding on their opening day...with all the press, prospective parents etc there. They have just been re-inspected and received an Inadequate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodlands1997 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 It says it's very unlikely to get outstanding on a first inspection in all their info unless it's a re registration as you could never show evidence of progress, self evaluation etc. When's this from Helen? We've been told we will be inspected within 7 months of getting registration approved? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Posted September 26, 2014 Author Share Posted September 26, 2014 The Nursery World article says 'Now' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodlands1997 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Oh interesting, I have just seen it on Twitter! I was actually quite looking forward to the fact we would know we would be inspected within 7 months but nevermind!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beau Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 That's just crazy but presumably it's some sort of cost cutting exercise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narnia Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 woodlands1977, the setting I am talking about was absolutely brand spanking new, definately not a re-registration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodlands1997 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 That's ridiculous narnia, I can why it says that it is very unlikely to get outstanding as a new provision as I agree you can't show progress etc. they obviously couldn't maintain it if they went on to get inadequate! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 hi. we were registered april 2014 and got inspected last week. As you have said could not get outstanding as we could not show progress in such a short time. as for funding...here newly registed not yet inspected settings still get 2 yr funding. only those inspected good and above get 2 yr funding. however lots of settings being downgraded so now it seems that they can keep the funding if on an area where 2yr fundong ia needed ie no other places and so long as they are following improvement plans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
