OFSTED have called to arrange a date for my first inspection.

Lucky me though, I was given a choice of 3 dates so I chose a Wednesday when I only have G who is very settled here now ;) Then she asked what time I would like her to come! So I know exactly the time and date. 28th May at 9.30am it is then.

At least I have 4 weeks to get myself sorted.

I am so envious of you getting it over and done with!

I nearly rang Ofsted today to ask when in the world my inspection would be as I'm so nervous not knowing! I want it over and done with so I can relax!

Anyway, good luck for 28th, I bet you'll be great - you're so lucky being able to choose the date and time!

She offered me 27th first of all but that is my birthday so I decided against that one!

Actually, I am really pleased I am getting it over and done with before September. Speaking to other minders at school, I have a bit of a tough inspector. She sounded nice enough on the phone though!

You'll be just fine. I also was told that my inspector wasn't the best inspector not giving new mindees anything above satisfactory - but she gave me an overall good (with 2 areas being outstanding - oh i never tire of adding that bit, he he:laughing: ). My point in this is that just take them as they come. I know for sure that after my inspection, i'll not worry about my next one. It wasn't nearly 1/2 as bad as i worked myself up to thinking it would be.

Good luck - not that you'll need it. :)

Good luck for the inspection.

Do Ofsted normally give you a choice of dates? I think it's quite handy if they do, I just assumed that they told you when they were coming.
