maggiewallace Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Has anyone seen the "promoting british values" section and the "promote their welfare and prevent radicalisation and extremism" This obviously seems silly for Early Years but it's in the Early Years Common Inspection Framework so I'm just finding out if anyone is going to face this? I mean, I guess, we can teach staff about looking out for signs just as we do looking out for FGM? But when it comes to teaching the children???

mundia Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Yes the proving British values has been discussed for awhile now. The Foundation Years website has some guidance on this, which is here http://www.foundationyears.org.uk/2015/03/fundamental-british-values-in-the-early-years/ it's much of what we already do.

Wildflowers Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 From Nursery World: The three key judgements used to gauge quality and standards in a setting have now been replaced [...] They were ‘how well the early years provision meets the needs of the range of children who attend’, ‘the contribution of the early years provision to children’s well-being’, and ‘the leadership and management of the early years provision'. The areas of emphasis are now ‘overall effectiveness’, ‘effectiveness of leadership and management’, ‘quality of teaching, learning and assessment’, ‘personal development,’ ‘behaviour and welfare’, and ‘outcomes for children’. Does anyone know if there will be a new SEF in relation to this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredbear Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 Yes we certainly need to be mindful of this and have this as a whole setting ethos. This might also come under engagement with adults and being aware of any radicalisation there too I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyfs1966 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Oh I do hope so given the changes in categories, it would seem logical.....ah well, it wouldn't be Ofsted without ruining the summer break! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyfs1966 Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Oh I do hope so Asked my LEA about Sef today, they didn't even know the new framework had been published (UNBELIEVABLE!). As I got no joy from them, I have emailed Ofsted and will post again if/when I get an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyfs1966 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 (edited) This was my reply from Ofsted.....NOT helpful! Simply links me to the 2013 version. Thank you for your e-mail. In response to your enquiry the most up to date version of the SEF form can be downloaded from here. There is currently not a set date for when this document will be next updated, but when it is it will be available from the same location on the website. I hope you find this information helpful. Errrrr, no, not helpful at all! Edited June 18, 2015 by eyfs1966 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyday Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 It's not helpful - but gives me the perfect excuse not to update my SEF........ Of course I was just about to do so 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I was just about to do so Hey Sunnyday, I think I am going to use that "excuse" too. Presumably Ofsted cant really value the SEF if they haven't bothered to write a new one then??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mundia Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Hi lashes. I wonder where you are looking as the new documentation is definitely there. Of course the current framework will still be available too as it's still in use until September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
