I have a file with my policies in in the entrance hall which is there for parents to access should they want or need to. I show this file to all prospective parents but I have found either they aren't interested in them at all (even change subject and talk about something else) or it just scares them into thinking I am not flexible
The file is ever expanding as new policies pop into my head and I can't help feeling like it's not working. It is evident from how my parents behave that they are unaware of most of my policies such as not smoking on my doorstep (yes this really happens), bringing sick children, not providing suncream etc.
Does anyone have any tips for policies?
I am thinking of a website then it is there for them to access when getting to know me before they start or as a reference point in case they are afraid to ask...then I was thinking how can I condense them into an easy to read booklet - perhaps get some printed?
OFSTED weren't interested either (I mainly did it for them!) saying they would rather question me about them as they could be copied anyway!
Help - I want to re-do them all so I can update them but I don't see the point if no one is going to read them!
Also I was led to believe that parents should sign all of them to state that they agree to them all?
