Hooray it's over!!!:jump for joy: :jump for joy:
Got 'Outstanding' in 2 areas and 'Good' in 3 areas!! I am over the moon as it was my first ever inspection and I have only been minding since February 08!!
Only quibble i had with her was this:
When i asked how i could improve on good......i was told:
'You can't really because thats not how it works......Good simply means everthing is great/perfect and there are no issues!'
So I asked...........'What is the difference between Outstanding and Good then?'
She replied...........'Outstanding means that the area of your setting has a WOW factor':rolleyes: :rolleyes:

I know what you mean with the grading system. I know people who don't put 1/2 as much effort into the minding & planning that i do & they to have the same grade as me.
But remember - you also got OUTSTANDING in 2 areas.
(just out of interest which areas did you get outstanding? I to got 3 good & 2 outstandings on my inspection - great feeling isn't it!?!)

Congratulations! :clapping:
Congratulations:clapping:
I'm still in the same place as you having got Outstanding in 3 areas and Good in 2...something about the grading system doesn't seem fair does it? However I am glad it's over and she had positive comments to share with me which I hope will be reflected in the report.
Well done again.
