Many inspectors pick one file and check it thoroughly.

They look for signatures, dates, things filled in properly, notes about allergies and illnesses, info from parents about childrenĀ“s starting points, medication and accident forms, your obs assessments and planning for the child etc...

Make sure every i is dotted and t crossed.

good luck! :D

Don't forget your policies. Like Sarah my inspector picked out a file. She wanted to see partnership with parents and other settings, where I had shown an obs and then the evidence of the planning for the next week. She suggested that I use a highlighter on the obs and then highlighted the planning in the following week to show this and if more than one child, then use different colours.

I also showed her what training I had done with evidence, certificates etc... and she was interested in the EYFS file I gave to parents explaining what it is (took a lot of this from my DCP and ECP)

Good luck when she comes

My inspector looked through every single piece of my paperwork! I would say re-read everything you have, make sure it makes sense & that you have evidence to show you do what you say you do.

I gave the inspector the all children's information files and realised afterwards these were not in date order eg the old contracts were mixed up with the new. A few minutes before she came would have sorted it, luckily I was not marked down and she liked the fact I kept all the old records.
