Good Morning All.
We have recently had a new co ordinator appointed to our area. It has raised a few questions.
A childminder im close too is a few months away from retirement and when the new co ordinator called her because she wanted to come and look at all her paperwork. My friend told her that she only looks after two 8 year olds for 3 hours a week and that she is giving up very soon so no point.
The new woman replied well if thats the case you need to give me your registration certificate. When my friend said she would return it to ofsted when the time comes new woman told her that she is effectively our boss and we have to do as she and the borough says.
My question is can our new co ordinator make the following demands un announced visits, all childminders do their paperwork the way she wants it done. Also can the borough just turn up when they like to do visits. I have always thought that its Ofsted we answer too.
Many Thanks in advance.
Susie.
