Thank you, i have opened both of us, read all of the info promptly from cover to cover and then proceeded to pretend that it isn't happening:laughing: :laughing:

I don't think we need to worry too much about the change in the inspection, because in all honesty I don't think we will overly notice, because there observations on us will still cover pretty much the same things, it is how they breakdown what they record that seems to change slightly.

It seems especially from reading a lot of the inspection posts on here, that there is so much variance on how long/what inspectors focus on /how long they stay/how picky they are etc that we would be hard pushed to notice and it not just be down to a complete range of inspectors and anomalies that we already have:laughing: !

Thanks Pauline:thumbsup:

[MissTinkerbell]

I got mine yesterday but like others not going to worry about it for 2 years and 6 months!!

Mind you I did read with interest that they have finally decided just what paperwork and roughly how much of it we need to do - well until they change their mins I suppose!:laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Thanks Pauline.
Dh's came on Weds and mine came on Fri. We have been on hols from the mindees this week so as soon as we saw 'ofsted' we put them on the 'Things to do when we are back at work' pile!! :laughing:
Although, I'm not sure whether to read and take it all in, as our inspection is not for another 2 years, so as the others have said, it will all have changed again by then! :rolleyes:
