This document will give you an idea of what will happen during your inspection -

Ofsted | Conducting early years inspections

This one tells you what you need to have in place (the minimum) -

Ofsted | Are you ready for your inspection? A guide to inspections of provision on Ofsted's Childcare and Early Years Registers

Good luck!

I had my first graded inspection last week, I was so worried after all that I'd heard re Ofsted -both my sisters being teachers didn't help!! lol- but it went well, Mrs 'O' was lovely, made me feel at ease straight away! Read Sarah's recommendations, they will definitely help, have a go at your sef if you haven't already... and if your stuck on anything at all just ask!
