    Default is there any consistency with regards to 1st inspections?

    I am nosey and look at the posts about people that have had/or are due inspections.

    I have seen someone who was reged october 08 who has just had the call
    and someone who was regged august 08 who is waiting for the call.
    this is according to the notes under peoples names

    The reason why I am being obsessive over it is that I was regged september 08
    I was begining to get highly stressed about my impeeding inspection but then my CDO said they were a little behind in our area and I relaxed a bit...

    but now...



    PANIC THEY COULD RING ME ANY TIME ARGHHH!!!!!

    I feel a little better

    I registered in July 2007 and had my first inspection in July 2008... there was no rush! I don't think there is any one way of knowing when they might call tbh.

    Hi I was registered Feb last year, and Ofsted rang and came in April, so pretty quick.

    If I were you I would look at ofsted inspection reports in your area, and then you will get a better idea as they say when people registered and had their inspection. It also gives you an idea of what the inspectors are like from your area, and what they are particularly hot on.

    Im expecting the call anytime now (although hope they wont actually want to come out as I don't have any in early years age group), my mobile rang this morning and it was the deaded 404040 number , but luckily they wanted to talk about my SEF as id requested a security token.

    Hi,
    I registered Sept 08 and had my inspection on monday. Was given just over a week and half's notice!! Suppose that is better than the notice they have given to other people.
