I'm trying to write my variation request to ofsted and just wanted to check if I need to include anymore detail.
I am currently reg to have 2 children 0-8yrs. When I registered my ds was 2 but is now at school full-time. I currently have 4 mindees over 4 days (only 2 at a time). I want to increase my numbers to 3 children between 0-8yrs.
In my letter I have listed the children who attend, giving details if their d.o.b. and which days they attend.
I've put that my ds has been at school full time since September.
Have put that 1 mindee is term time only with occasional care required in the hols.
I've requested the variation so that if any parent requires an extra day or needs to change their day then I'll be able to meet their needs.
I've written a brief paragraph listing the equipment I have to accomodate 3 children (ie highchairs, buggys etc). -I'm not sure how much detail I need to put in this one.
I have then put another paragraph detailing the great relationships between mindees on particular days and how I think they'll all get on well if another child (from a different day)is added to the mix.
Finally, I've started to write a paragraph about how my ds fits into the weekly routine and that he's comfortable sharing our home with the other children although not sure that I need to include this.
It's my first variation request and I really have no idea how much detail I need to give or whether I'm waffling too much!! Any advice greatly appreciated!!
