sunnyday Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Still nothing! Bizarre! How are you responding? I received a letter through the post. It says that we can't use handwritten answers? Will probably type answers and attach it to an email???? Seems a bit strange - or is it just me?? All very strange! I had to speak to Ofsted this week about another matter and asked why I had not received email or letter. They said as I am not a group provider it didn't apply to me. That said, they also led me round and round in circles about the matter I was initially querying, so I'm not sure that I trust anything they say!! Took 4 calls to 4 different ofsted persons before I managed to sort the issue myself. Really don't understand that at all :blink: I'm glad I have seen this thread as it has saved a phone call to OFSTED. I opened the email but have not replied as I didn't think it was genuine. I'm very suspicious of randon emails purporting to be from organisations and would not have completed it without checking it's authenticity. I haven't a clue how it relates to the finance legislation mentioned - I haven't had requests from other organisations for information! So pleased that I am not the only one with a 'suspicious mind' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will probably type answers and attach it to an email???? Seems a bit strange - or is it just me?? I emailed them and asked for the spreadsheet version. Which they have sent... I just haven't filled it in yet - it needs to wait for my office day! Which this is, so I s'pose I'd better at least look at it today...

Masha Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I emailed them and asked for the spreadsheet version. Which they have sent... I just haven't filled it in yet - it needs to wait for my office day! Which this is, so I s'pose I'd better at least look at it today... I did this too, but when I tried to complete it it wouldn't let me because it's password protected. So I've emailed them again this morning to ask for the password and am still waiting for a reply. Why must they make everything so difficult! On the bright side I suppose it means I don't have to complete it today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpymum Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Hi Masha Had the same problem and they responded to the email with an unprotected copy after a couple of days. Completed and emailed it back this morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsp Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Sent mine in today. Di di note that I can no longer be the nominated person as I am not part of the registered person (committee) although I did name myself as a contact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Di di note that I can no longer be the nominated person as I am not part of the registered person (committee) although I did name myself as a contact. Are you the nominated person? I'm waiting for the electronic version to come through so I haven't paid much attention to the paper version Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsp Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 I think I was the nominated person and the committee was the registered 'person' - is that the right terminology? On the new contact details, section c, it states that the nominated individual must be part of the registered person. So my understanding is that must mean a committee member? Section E is for up to 2 named contacts, ofsted recommend one is the manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lsp Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 (edited) Out Treasurer is most reliable and longest serving so I put her as nominated person. I am not a named committee member. Didn't put a second contact. Will work on that one! Just wanted to get it sent in. Edited December 10, 2015 by lsp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
