    Default SEF

    I am finding this hard to fill-in any tips? I only have 1 child on a Friday term-time only at the minute

    It's about your good practice - it doesn't matter how many children you look after.

    You need to think how you work and sell yourself to Ofsted ...

    Aim on doing a paragraph for each section to start with, then come back to it and do more whenever you feel inspired.

    i printed mine out, then printed out a copy of the SEF 'HELP' (that you can pop up on the left) and then wrote a sentance or paragraph, depending upon how much i had to say, about each of the points they give in the help section!, plus anything else i though might fit in!

    i also repeated myself as several of the areas seem to overlap!

    as sarah said ... sell yourself, and how wonderfully you do everything! i went through everything i tell/give my parents and wrote that down, what i do each day/week etc, and fitted it in wherever i could.

    my inspector said it was a comprehensive SEF !

    hope that helps, and hasn't confused you more.
