Hi, it was 3 years from my first inspection in September 2009 so I guess I was one of the first to get an EYFS inspection, not heard anything from Ofsted yet. But just wondering if anyone has had 2 EYFS ofsted inspections. There seems to be a lot of childminders in our area that have not had an EYFS inspection yet, wondering if I will get inspected before the new EYFS.

I have been minding 11 years this year and have not had an EYFS inspection yet my inspection is a year over due

I don't know anyone who has had two eyes inspections but there is a cm in the village who was inspected three years ago just as eyes came in.

June and I were inspected in April 2009, just after EYFS came in, so should be due April this year :eek: Hoping it takes a bit longer, I seem to have lost my mojo at present :(

I suppose if you were inspected in the last quater of 2008, then you will be over due for an EYFS inspection, even now, and the chances of getting one before Aug 2012, when the current eyfs will change is quite high.

it is quite alarming that some cm haven't been inspected under the current eyfs yet.

hi ya, i was also inspected september 2009, when i last spoke to my dw she told me its once in every cycle which is 4years!! i will just wait for the call, and keep going they find what they find!! haha

Apparently you have to be inspected at least once in every 47 month cycle. I'm guessing the last cycle started when EYFS came in, so they should inspect everyone under it by August 2012. I'm sure it only used to be a 3 yr cycle and I do wonder if they changed it to 4 yrs as they didn't manage to meet the 3 year target.

I had my inspection almost 3 years ago and most cms in the area have now had a EYFS inspection. I'm guessing if they're up to date in my area, it could be any time soon that I have another one.

I can remember that when I last had my inspection, which was 3 years this month, my Do said it was on a 42month cycle. I know there is still quite a few in this area still who have still not been inspected under eyfs. But I'm trying not take anything for granted, knowing my luck they'll turn up anytime:panic::laughing:

I was due last October so could be anytime now, I wish I knew when as any phone call is making me jump and it is especially horrible when you get those silly ones where they ask you to confirm your name :panic: then it turns out to be somebody selling something:censored:

So I was starting to get to grips with it but not very well...I still got a good though
