I got the call first thing monday morning - she said she would come either Tuesday or Thursday - originally I'd hoped that she would come Thursday. When I woke up yesterday - I thought I hope its today and when I got home from school she was waiting for me!

She was here about 2.5 hours, during that time I delivered my little one to nursery (a relief as he really played up - guessing they are used to that) she looked through my paperwork.

She watched me play with 18month old the only one I had yesterday - I felt very self-conscience when she went down for her sleep the questions started!

Everything ok I wish I had completed my on-line sef (I think requesting a security token last week triggered it) my inspection would have been shorter.

She was very good - no complaints another new-to-me inspector so more inconsistencies - she wants a loo lock moved up never been an issue in any of my other inspections I am happy with the height as a little one is able to reach and wouldn't be going to the loo alone anyway - but hey ho!

The galling thing is the obs - I was pleased with my obs format, parents are pleased to - its signed in and out and verbally discussed - she wanted written coments from parents this is out of my control but I was marked down on it - If ofstead want this then I feel they should make it clear from the outset rather than the wooly requirement now - it can't be wrong if they don't really tell us what right is :(

But got outstanding in some areas but overall good - she was really helpful (not at all condescending) in what I could do to be outstanding next time.

Over with now!

Thanks for the break down that was useful, as mine is due! How can we insist that parents give feed back?? I have started learning journey's with mine but the parents are yet to see them because we are not quite upto date. Maybe I better update afew get them out to parents and INSIST they write some feed back:laughing:

I've been trying to work out how to get parents to comment on the learning journals/obs too ... I'm going to send one home with a parent and ask for written feedback to see what she does then will ask the other parent to do the same but give more instructions as such pending what parent one does.

well done on gaining your GOOD too :clapping:
