Calling all outstanding childminders...I need help

I have just found the CD of the logos for using on my paperwork & I actually have half an hour to put them in my files

But I can't find the letter that went with them

Does anyone have a copy they could email me or know where to find them on the website?

TIA

OFSTEDo/s - If you only just got it, they may take a while as I know each logo is for the relevant year of getting the 'outstanding' grade

Hi katymac didnt realise outstanding childminders got a special cdI was graded outstanding 2 weeks ago how long a wait was it til you got yours?
Love your website by the way Think I have read about you in edp about a year ago or am I wrong?

looneytune · 17/05/2007 18:27

Don't worry, my fault for not reading correctly. Kids didn't mind being locked in a cupboard whilst I went up (only joking, last one was picked up early so I HAD just finished)

I've replied to your draft

looneytune · 17/05/2007 18:25

No - I just have some spare time (rare and unusual event) and thought I could do this small job before collapsing into bed for a nap

Sorry if you rushed

Glad it was the right thing, even if I am a mere Good (but with 2 outstanding elements )
