Hi crumpet, congrats on having a successful pre-reg visit :-) just wondering as I'm in the process now...how long after submitting your Ofsted application did they contact you to arrange your pre-reg? X

Submitted in June got the call end of October x
I was ringing up weekly chasing it up constantly the delay was the social services checks were lost- I contacted myself it was a lot of frustrated calls as everything had been completed by July so it took all that time on just the ss checks.

Well done!!! :-)

Thanks mumofone looking forward to starting now. Shouldn't be too long to wait for certificate.

Well done and good luck in your new career....your family in waiting will be delighted.

It looks like Tribal/Prospects did mange to register you within the 12 weeks which Ofsted states the registration must take...so now make sure you get that certificate in time too.

Good luck!

Thanks Simona, yes once the checks were back then it was really quick process. It would have been sooner but I specifically needed a Friday due to my friend having my daughter, so yes once it was all through it was very quick!
I've just been around the community cafe, medical centre and post office to put my flyers up! Yay!
(I'm not sure whether the family waiting have made a u turn see my other post lol) 😄

[crumpet54]

Just had another enquiry already!
