I email a sheet showing the times I have the children and the times I need an overlap. Explain why and for this reason I cannot see any reason why not.

Once emailed, send it recorded post as that has your signature on.

2 examples attached - colourful and confusing for Ofsted but it works. Call out if you need any help.

This is the e-mail form from Ofsted to apply for a variation

I believe at the moment it is taking up to 12 weeks for a decision to come through...

It might be quicker, but this was the latest information a member was given.

Hth :D

I have just had a variation granted 3 weeks after I applied via e-mail, I rang them to see if my application was progressing and it had been agreed.
