View Full Version : refrences for ofsted
i have put my friend down as a refrence for ofsted (along with my employer) she WAS married to my ex :laughing:
anyway as i've mentioned on here i was worried as my ex mother in law reported me for abuse against my son, social services investigated and the case was closed as they had no concerns,
my friend has also been reported by the same person for the same reasons when she too kicked my ex out
should she tell ofsted when they ring??

Are you worried that she will give you a bad referance or that when they the SS check it will bring something up?
i have mentioned it on the form anyway as it asks, and i have nothing to hide :thumbsup:
she won't give me a bad reference, i wouldn't have put her down if i thought she would :laughing:
it's more to prove that this ex MIL is a evil :censored: and targets people who've done nothing wrong

"When ofsted ring" - I know that ofsted didn't ring any of my referees - they just sent them a questionnire to fill in about me and send back - they never did contact them.
I am not sure what to say about the SS bit, sorry. I hope it is ok. xx

I sent my refrences in with my app form and OFSTED were happy at that and never contacted either of them.
