    I started process in November and just got my certificate on Saturday!! I guess it really does depend on where you are!!! Ofsted are much less scary than I could have imagined - woman who came here was lovely - they're not testing you - they need you too!!!! A lot of it is common sense and they just want to know that you're not a div and responsible!!!! Hope it all goes well for you all xxx

    Thank you. Yes I should be getting the call any day now! So excited but a bit surprised as it's just short of 4 weeks since I sent my forms back to ofsted and on the briefing course she said it was taking 12 weeks for ofsted to call!
    It takes a few days for the crb info to get on the system but I hope it's as quick for you. Keep posting to let us know xx

    I'm in a similar position too - have just received the CRB forms yesterday, and getting them verified tonight, ready to send off tomorrow. Did anyone else send them special delivery?

    Hoping it's quick for me - I can't wait to get started!! Good luck to everyone else!

    You will get a call from ofsted to confirm they have your application and then your disclosure forms for crb will arrive in a few days. xx
