Hope someone can help me here. I know the issue of ratio is posted a lot on here but need clarification.
In September I will be minding 4 school age children 2 days after school. Siblings and age range: 8,7 twin 4 yr olds. the twins are going into Rec and are not 5 until Nov 2nd. Not got any other mindees yet but have started advertising and don't want to accept work if it puts me over my ratio.
Are the twins classed as rising 5's and am I ok with taking them on? as the twins could be classed as a variation I think. Was thinking of ringing Ofsted to confirm as due my first inspection Sept onwards and don't want to give myself problems before even started properly.
Looking to sign contracts on Friday so before we do I need to be sure its ok with ratios.
I have looked at other posts but can't seem to find one that is similar to my situation.
Thanks in advance.
