Melba Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 This morning I went to a TAC meeting about one of my key children. The child minder who also cares for him was there and actually said this, "I used to do that EYFS stuff but then it all changed and I haven't had time to catch up with it yet so I'm not doing any now. Maybe you could have a chat and tell what I should be doing" !! There was a Children Centre rep there as well and she was horrified. And this woman got good from Ofsted last time. Quote
zigzag Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 Oh my goodness, words fail me also. How on earth did she get a good judgement from Ofsted? Quote
thumperrabbit Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 good grief - but then my authority advisor has often said to me that I wouldn't believe some of the places that they have to support. They are gobsmacked themselves at some of the settings that pass Ofsted but then equally flummoxed by some of the good settings who get slated It's the luck of the draw on the day 1 Quote
twinthinguk Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 oh dear.....thats a bit depressing.....no point in asking her for a learning journal then lol 2 Quote
louby loo Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 In the last few weeks I have heard one local setting has got an outstanding, and one has got a requires improvement. All I'm saying I know which one I would be happy to send my grandchild to!!! 2 Quote
Guest Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 That's not a good wow haha. It scares me sometimes as to what planet some practitioners are actually on! Quote
Melba Posted March 2, 2015 Author Posted March 2, 2015 And as for the chat to get her up-to-date.... I think not! I'm too busy doing that for the 18 staff I have. I'm not ignoring them to tell you how to do the job you are being paid for (probably more than I get as well!) Quote
Melba Posted March 2, 2015 Author Posted March 2, 2015 And actually, as I continue my rant, she is the second child minder who has told me I can spend lots of time getting them ready for Ofsted because she had no idea what she was supposed to be doing. And she got Good as well. Quote
flowlow Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 (edited) oh dear guess partnership working could be fun!!! It does show you what a joke Mr O is really they rule our lives but really what do they really know about any of us!! Edited March 3, 2015 by Johanna1 2 Quote
honeybee123 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 How on earth did that setting get a Good for their outcome. We had a good but our children`s profiles and next steps in their learning were checked robustly. All I can say its who you get on that day, I`m afraid. 3 Quote
tish501 Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 Definitely it depends which side of his/her bed that they get out of on the morning of your Inspection xx 2 Quote
MarshaD Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 I had a 'childminder'. Think she might be a family friend actually refer to a child as a naughty baby and about her artwork said what's all this rubbish. Quote
