CYPOP5 - How long did you take to get assessed?

**Sparkles** · 20-01-2012, 12:05 PM

Hi everyone, Happy Friday!!!!

I submitted my CYPOP5 about 4 days ago

, and was just wondering how long it took any of you to be assessed?

I am sending off my Ofsted registration form today to get that ball rolling.

Is there anything else I can be doing to be proactive whilst I am waiting to be marked? Thanks in advance.

They told me its assessed within 6 six weeks. You could be getting on with your policies and risk assessments - they took me ages !

Good luck to all who are waiting on assessment and results :-)
Just to highjack the post if that's alright? ......

On task 5 (leaflet for carers on safe and healthy setting) did you do 5 seperate leaflets or just one? It says in the ideas to get started to treat each section individually :-/ bit confused!

Thanks!

to be honest, I broke down all of the indivdual questions on all of the tasks, and the mentor never commented when she reviewed it that it wasnt right.
I made sure I submitted all tasks for review and then dealt with any of the mentor comments before I finally submitted the work. From what I gather after talking to the mentor a few times, the trick is not to over complicate the tasks. Mine are all word documents and broken down into the numbered sub-headings for each task.

Hope that helps, but I havent been marked yet!
