Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

   Note: Please bear in mind that this is a discussion board, not a place to advertise childcare vacancies or recruit childminders/nannies etc. We don't mind the odd mumsnet regular mentioning that they're looking for a job/mindee (although you're probably better off in MN Local) but repeated job "ads" and posts from nanny/babysitting agencies aren't fair to people who are paying for small business ads. Do feel free to report any you see. Thanks, MNHQ.

Help with pre-registration ofsted visit

Hi Im new to this forum, I have attended my pre-registration briefing session, filled in my forms for ofsted and am now trying to work my way through all the leaflets and the EYFS booklets.

Could anyone please give me any advice/guidance as to the sort of things ofsted will be looking for when they come to do my registration visit, what sort of questions they will ask (EYFS) and what paperwork I need to have ready? TIA.

There seems to be soooo much to read and work through.

Thanks

dont panic, they dont want to catch you out in fact you should ask them as many questions as they ask you.. flatter them..

you dont need everything in place but you need to know what you will need to do when the children are in your house... think safety safety safety, have some policies and proceedures.. fire, outings,etc.,

good luck and you will be fine

they will ask you anything from that booklet you should have. You don't need to have anthing ready just need to have an understanding of what paperwork you will need. If you do have some paperwork done it might make you look better - I had my policies and procedures.

Mine took 3 hours!

Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face, , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin, , type [grin] or :o
For a wink, , type [wink]
For a shocked face, , type [shock]
For an angry face, , type [angry]
For an embarrassed face, , type [blush]
For a sad face, , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face, , type [envy]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
