I had my Ofsted (Prospect) visit yesterday and was told I would be graded GOOD! I'm really chuffed and the inspector was lovely and complimented my setting saying I did more than neccessary for EYFS and that I seemed always 'to go the extra mile' for parents and children. The only thing she pulled me up on was I hadn't made contact with a childs playgroup. J started this playgroup in October but will be leaving me at the end of the month to start nursery full time so I didn't think it was worth liaising with them for such a short period of time but I did explain that I would pass on his Obs folder and learning journal when he leaves. To be honest I wasn't too concerned what grading I got because I had asked parents if they wanted to comment to the inspector and two wrote lovely references (which made me cry) and the third was dropping off when the inspector was here so had a chat with her and said some complimentary and personal thoughts about me and the care I provide. To me as long as the parents and children are happy then if my paperwork isn't 'Outstanding' then so be it.

Well done on a good inspection :thumbsup: I've always said the same , as long as my children and parents are happy the care ( and all the extras i provide !!) , thats's what really matters.

Congratulations and I agree the parents views are more important than Ofsteds.

Miffy xx

Well done!! I agree that as long as parents are happy thats the main thing, but having said that it doesn't hurt to have a good ofsted report for anyone looking who doesn't know you!!! Congratulations

Well done :clapping: :clapping:
