Ofsted | Early years online self-evaluation form (SEF) and guidance for providers delivering the Early Years Foundation Stage

Thank you

I can see the grading has been updated:

Outstanding: my practice is exemplary
Good: my practice is strong
Requires improvement: my practice is not good enough and I know it needs to improve
Inadequate: my practice requires significant improvement

But are there any other major changes you can see? I guess our old online SEF will be transferred across to the new format like they did last time they changed it?

The RAG rating reference section 2 has been taken off, wonder if this is because they expect us all to be joining agencies? I won't be! Most changes seem to be page reference numbers to inspector's evaluation schedule
