Whilst enjoying a lovely day out at legoland today received a call on my mobile. Yes, you've guess it Ofsted are coming. I am in total shock, as did not expect them so soon, only got my certificate end of Jan and began child minding mid feb. She based it from the time of my pre-reg Nov and said they were due to visit by May. I know lots of CMs at school who registered last August and still not received a call. Told her I was going on holiday in May so she is coming either Monday 14th April or Tuesday 15th April at 12.00 would not say what day.
I have been busy reading up on EYFS, but need to forget that now, and concentrate on National Standards. I do not have any under 3's and not planning on having any for the immediate future, as already have 4 years olds and over after nursery and after school, and have some more of these ages starting in September. Do I needs to know much about birth to 3 do you think? I have not as yet done any long term planning have been busy getting materials etc and was planning on doing that in next few months as only look after children Mon and Tue from Nursery and a few after school on other days. Do I need to show long term planning or does that not come into effect until September. Any help gratefully appreciated.
