Silly question prob but panicing!!

Awaiting call from Ofsted re: first graded insp, do they normally call on a Monday to check availability for that week? They did last time & they then offered me that wed or following wed. Just concerned as I work part-time hours. If they call midweek I will be all of a tither trying to make sure everything is perfect, (mainly dusting lol) Hopefully I will have one more weekend before th dreaded call to double check everything AND do some SEF! :panic:

I can't remember what day I got my call but I had 3 weeks notice as she had loads to do! She was also very flexible and am told if you say when is good for you they will fit in with your routine. Good luck:-)

I didn't get any flexibility - I was told on the Friday phone call that it was for anytime the following week, and then had a text from the actual inspector at 8pm the night.before to say see you in the morning.

I was desperate for a good for the funding too, and got one. I'm sure.you'll be.ok.

YIKES! In a way that may be a good idea to save me worrying too much. If I can just have this weekend to get SEF done I will feel ready! Not sure what she will say if its not done so think I had better

Thanks for your replies, bricking it still x
