There is another thread on this but many cms may not return to read it so here is a new one.

I emailed Ofsted just over an hour ago and this is the reply I have just received

''Dear Simona

For scheduled inspections, childminders will reeceive a call beforehand as they always have done. Where we are bringing forward an inspection as a result of a concern, these are usually carried out unannounced''

This is my reply to Ofsted:

''This a most welcome message.. unfortunately many cms are being inspected without any warning whatsoever when it relates to a scheduled cycle inspection...they report the inspector just turns up on the day and it is causing huge worries as they are concerned about being out on outings or school runs

You may hear about this more...not sure what they can do but it has reassured me.

Regards

Simona''

Any problems please report them and I will go back to Ofsted
