Hi Shell
Oh I did put a notice on here at the start of the week saying good luck I knew it was this week, I bet you are so glad it is all over , did it go better than you imagined how long were they there for and how come you had two of them ?? Was you nervous or well prepared You can breathe again for another few years now
Well done anyway and yes what grade did you get?
Hope we see you around a bit more again now
Angel xx

You're welcome Shell, bet you feel like a big weight has been lifted from your shoulders now that it's over.
I too was wondering why you had two inspectors, perhaps one was a trainee?

Hi everyone,
Hope you are all well.
Can't believe how cold it is outside maybe we may get some snow.
The reason 2 Ofsted Inspectors came is one was training. They made me feel at ease. I was extremely nervous with it being my first Inspection as i didn't know what would happen.
I got a Satisfactory, i was a little disappointed with the Grade but the Inspector said this was fine for a 6 month Inspection. I think i was a little disappointed as my sister whose a childminder got a Good at her 6 month Inspection.

Hi Shell,
Yes it is very cold outside and yes It could snow , I hope so anyway !!
Oh do not be disappointed with your grade , well done !!!! That is really good for only 6mths , remember childminders who have been minding for years get good and they have lots of resources to show for that , there is no way in 6mths that you could collect that much. I for one think that is brilliant
It could have depended on the inspector with regards to your sisters grade
Do not worry about it you should be proud of yourself Shell

Let me know if you get snow your way

No don't be disappointed with Satisfactory Shell, I know some minders who have been going for years and still only get that. Remember that Satisfactory is the old 'good'. I think that when they changed the gradings and added Outstanding they should have changed the others to reflect it and made it Outstanding, Excellent, Good and Inadequate. Sounds much better. Well done!
