playgroup1 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Hi With regard to new inspection framework and inclusion of focus on staff well being, has anybody got a policy for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafa Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Sorry not here, I refuse to do another policy, Ofsted or no Ofsted. Our little team are fine thank you very much, they have a voice, they have Supervisions and Appraisals and this is just another 'thing' on appallingingly low funding that is 'expected?' or us. So NO 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So NO I agree! I should add we have a 'wellbeing section' on our supervision forms - and it's been there for at least 4 years 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebecca Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 It's not a statutory requirement, it's just something that is now being asked about by inspectors. It came about as a result of the Early Years Alliance 'Minds Matter' report which detailed the amount of pressure EY staff are under. I'm not doing anything different to what we have already done - (as people have said above). The idea that we should write a policy about how we are going to do less writing is frankly ridiculous - it hasn't been asked for and isn't needed. Good and Outstanding settings keep their staff because they care for them and are attentive to their well-being needs - it's about being considerate and sensible. If anything, I'm putting it under British Values 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the first question on the form though ..... and don't forget I an the A4 Queen.... everything has to fit one side of A4 or it doesn't happen. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafa Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Ahh pleased to read I am not alone here........I wondered if I might be booed off! Feeling exceptionally grumpy about anything 'new' being suggested or hinted at as 'Good Practice'. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
