No rush Flora Dora...today it was one of those days where news and updates cascaded from everywhere after a very silent January...well ...kind of!!
We will hear more about this update from Ofsted...I am certain.

My apologi8es I have posted this in the wrong section of the forum but I am sure admin will come to the rescue and put it where it belongs

Argh does this require any changes on our part?

I have read the latest Ofsted factsheet and will look at the DfE guidance too....to make sure the 2 are covered in my policy.
Overall it helps to prepare for an inspection and answer questions....I have also saved in and will print if I feel it is necessary as I like to tick things off!!!

I noticed Ofsted have added a 5th category for abuse....financial or material abuse...I suppose because of their wide remit and who they inspect....and recent cases of abuse
That will need to be reflected on I think?
