Hi All, im new and was after advice on where i can print off helpful things like registers, permisson forms, risk assessments, obs sheets? contracts maybe?? or anything else i may need? ofstedi dont mind doing any of it myself but just wondered if there was such places that i could just print them off and use them! ive just finished my course and tbh my brain is one big blur it needs a rest lol, but ive just been told i have to do a folder for ofsted ive been given a list of what needs to be in that folder following the every child matters listed under each heading is a list of paperwork i need in the folder to show ofsted

With regards to contracts if you are an NCMA member then you HAVE to use their paperwork - if you are MM then you can use theirs or use your own

You can make up the rest of your paperwork

there are no risk assessments pre done as these have to be individual to your setting. I'm afraid these are totally down to your elbow grease as are policies and procedures - something else that is setting specific.

Have you looked in the free downloads sections on here and also on Bromley (BCMA) for templates.

You need to play around with some formats for obs for example so you can fine what works well and best for you

I'm doing the same. Be wary as well of any resource packs on ebay, as i found out it was only a very loosely changed version of the bromley templates. Pretty much was still word for word. :eek:

I hope mine sound a lot different, i only use them so i know what content i need to cover.

Do you mind sharing your list? After my course i don't remember being given any guidance on how and where to set things out. I was just going to do a folder for policies and procedures and a folder for risk assessments.
