I have just got back from toddlers and 2 minders asked me if i'd had my letter from Ofsted about someone else taking over our inspections from September 2010 has anyone had a letter because I havent so dont really know what they were talking about :panic:

I have not had a letter yet Emma, but there was a thread on here about the 2 new companies taking over from Ofsted, and as for Sept 2010 I am not sure when the takeover will happen....The thread was "No more inspections" or something like that:thumbsup:

ah yes just found it -
