It has not been re-issued for years. This maybe the 'latest' but it is not correct as there is no longer a www.ofsted... website, it is all under Welcome to GOV.UK (http://www.gov.uk)... Ofsted have not issued a corrected poster and the way website addresses change, I wonder if they ever will as it would soon be out of date again!

Oh! I have mine on display! should i take it down? Why would they not issue a new one? I assume we dont have to have these on display any longer then?

Has it ever really been a 'requirement'? I know it was something that got all CMers in a flap about printing the right version and where to display it.
No mention in EYFS, or the Inspection Framework, I believe? We do need to inform parents how to contact Ofsted, but how you do that is up to you, surely? I still have mine up, makes it easy for inspector and parents to see it. But honestly, can you imagine a parent taking out a notepad and pen in your hallway and noting down how to call Ofsted? Of course not, they'd google it! I don't think a parent has ever stood in my hallway having a good read of it at all!
Leave it up, take it down, up to you but make sure you know how you inform parents how to contact Ofsted.

It is a requirement of the Eyfs to inform parents about how to contact Ofsted - they provide us with a poster which they expect us to display.

This is the latest - Ofsted's role in regulating childcare: poster for parents - GOV.UK (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/poster-for-parents-childcare) :D
