Hi All

I had my ofsted inspection yesterday but was told by the inspector that she wasnt sure what my grade would be until she checked everything she had written properly. She said at a glance it was Good but with further investigation it could drop to satisfactory.

This really stunned me as assumed they would tell you straight away. As it is she said she would phone me today to tell me what my actual grade was.

Has anyone else had this?

How odd? I've not heard of this just assumed you get told there and then.....may be wrong. Good luck :D

They can tell you the 'provisional ' grade there and then , but this is always subject to change .. they need to be quality checked etc. Its one of the reasons you arent supposed to disclose your grade til you get your report. Sounds like you will get good , congratulations:clapping:

Did she say why it might change? There's usually something they have to check with their boss.

Fingers crossed! :D
