Ofsted transcript

Did you know you can get a copy of the inspectors transcript. You request from ofsted stating you want it under the freedom of information act. A friend is doing it. Can't wait to compare it to the report.

Ooh, no I didn't! Thanks for the info

Do you mean the notes the inspector takes during your inspection or something else??

[jackie 7]

yes what she puts onto her computer, very useful if you are contesting what they say, not sure why we dont get a copy automatically.

Wow that might be a pandora's box...

How very, very tempting!!

Agreed. I would have loved to see what was written for my registration inspection - I think it would help me know what to work on first. And yes, if a graded inspection doesn't seem fair, then access to the notes seems reasonable and within the spirit of EYFS partnership working.
