    I think it's for all of us Veronica, it's what I have been hearing / reading for some time.

    It's just nice to get it in writing so we have some idea what we are aiming towards

    Thank you Sarah. That makes many points that are in an Ofsted presentation shared in the members area of NCMA so quite sure it's meant for childminders too.

    From what I've just read sounds like we will now be responsible for our own crbs, and even though ofsted can get away with not doing them, I doubt we will be able to use cost as an excuse, bang goes another 70 odd quid

    thanks Sarah. I think mine will be fairly rapid after September (3years was up in February this year but I already had one EYFS inspection) so will be waiting for the call .

    It might be because you are a new member Maritte - the forum protects downloads and links.

    If you go on the Nursery World website you will be able to see the article.
