I'm likely to get my 1st graded inspection in the next few weeks. I've had the call from prospects so I'm frantically trying to make sure I'm ready!

I've been working through Sarah's essential ofsted paperwork checklist to make sure I've got everything.
I need help with a couple of things on the list:
-information about your registration on the voluntary childcare register.
I've looked through everything I've got & I've searched the internet but cant find anything specifically about this that I could print & put in my file.

-copy of the eyfs 2012 with notes to show how each requirement is met
-copy of the childcare register 2012 and notes to show how each requirement is met.
Again I've looked & can't work out what I should use!

So stressed out ay the moment so if someone could pretty please help me out I'd be forever grateful :) :)

-information about your registration on the voluntary childcare register.

That is on your Ofsted certificate- read the print on the certificate- it will say if you are registered on voluntary childcare register.

-copy of the eyfs 2012 with notes to show how each requirement is met

That's the EYFS Statutory Framework- you should have a copy already?

-copy of the childcare register 2012 and notes to show how each requirement is met.

see: Ofsted | Guide to registration on the Childcare Register (http://www.ofsted.gov.uk/resources/guide-registration-childcare-register)

see notes in quote above. HTH x

Right. So I've already got everything then no need to re-print anything then?
Thank you :)

Sarah made a wonderful document when the EYFS 2012 came in which i have used to write my notes on as it details everything you need. There is a copy in free resources at the top of the page.

Here is the link

Useful info, thanks! Also expecting a first graded inspection and trying not to panic! Let me know when/if you get the call, Mrsh and I'll do the same?

I'm so stressed out its unreal! Up until I had the call from prospects I thought my paperwork was spot on. Now I'm doubting everything :( I just want it over with so I can relax!
