    Default Mrs o has just left

    Had my inspection this morning and it went really well. Mrs o was mostly interested in how I interacted with my mindee, and so sat in the garden and watched us play. She glanced at my paperwork but wasn't really very interested. She liked the way I had indoors and outdoors set up to cover all 7 areas and the fact I had fact and fiction books out for my little ones to look at (all under 2)

    She questioned me a lot about how I deal with different situations and also how the children manage their own risk.

    She was impressed with my plans for the garden ( I have done a mock up on the computer of my garden with the resources and changes I plan to make, and date it as I manage each one) and the fact I have a plan of courses I wish to attend to improve my provision.

    Inspection lasted 2.5 hours

    Well done - sounds like you managed to get one of the few remaining "human" inspectors - was that a first graded inspection? if not how long ago did you have your last one? Any other feedback would be appreciated and keep us informed of your garden plans (with pics please). Are you going to tell us what grade you got or is it a secret?

    Was my first graded. She said I'm not supposed to say yet, but since u don't know me I will! Hehe I got good. She wanted to award me outstanding but said she couldn't as I haven't worked long enough to prove development

    That is such good news and surely will uplift our spirits...yes let's hope their attitude will change and we all get a human inspector...
