Hi everyone
I passed pre registration yesterday and she said my certificate should be here by Monday (1 week away).
I have parents waiting for children to start beg of November and one parent said she needs my number to ring tax credits 2 weeks before her child starts. Is this right? Can I give it her now and she tells ofsted the start day is November? I'm scared of giving it her without me having a certificate in case I get in trouble :-# As long I do not have him until the start date and I make sure I have my certificate will I be ok?

Thanks X

certificates can take a few weeks to come through ... and you can't usually get insurance until you have a certificate ... and you can't take money without insurance ... so you are in a very difficult position at the moment.

I would suggest you wait a little while make sure you have your certificate in your hand and then it will hopefully all fall into place x

If the inspector said the certificate will take a week then I would 'nudge' Ofsted if you do not have it within that time limit...Ofsted cannot always move the goal posts just because they are behind schedule on almost everything they do!!!
