Ofsted sent a letter and a form for me to sign today, requesting that their medical advisers can access my GP medical records and ask my GP to answer further questions about my health.!!!
Now I thought thats what she had already done by writing in my health forms for which I got charged!
They are querying whether I am fit to look after children as I have had a disc taken out of my lower spine and 2 rods put in to fuse it. This happened 4yrs ago and I'm fine now apart from som minor sciatic nerve damage to left foot.
The back ground to this :- 12yrs ago I applied to social services to become a childminder and they said I was unfit to lok after someone elses child as I had a dodgy back (pre-op). My retaliation was "well if I'm unfit to look after another child for just 3days per week, then I must be unfit to look after my own children 24/7!" Oh no they said we're not saying that at all - errr well yes you are actually.
Now 3 back ops later and 3children!!! they are querying my ability to look after them. Surely thats up to me whether I am fit enough to be able to take on more work for myself.
Will be very interesting to see what happens now - especially as WE are supposed to be all for inclusion!! Errrr hellooo - disability dicrimination act!!!
Sorry rant over, its just got me very annoyed. Has anyone else had any dealings with this??
