CM CLUB; inspection due soon and EYFS still not happening for me?!!!!

[smeeinit]

so i really dont like the whole EYFS thing and reeeeeealy dont want toHAVE do it to keep ofsted happy.
i love my job and the kids are like my own family,im happy,the kids are happy the parents are happy..
we do so much activities and have a massive range of varied experiences so what happen swhen i get inspected? do i just tow the line with EYFS or make it clear i dont want to do it?!
all my other paperwork is up to date and correct i just dont want to do the EYFS!

How much training have you had?

If you haven't had much (esp if it's not avail) I think you could fudge it

But next inspection you would be in trouble tbh

This isn't something you can chose not to do - it is legislative

hmm i know katymac....i know i have to do it,im just frustarated and having an off day!
it all makes me want to quit.

ive had minimal training...

Do you have my email - I can send you what I do

It is very easy, honest

I AGREE with smeeinit..i sooo dont want to have do more paperwork..i want to concentrate on having fun with the kids..not worry about have i done observations linked to EYFS FGS!! plus the planning..i dont reallyplan..well not on paper anyway..i have tow under ones..do you really think im going to do planning as in ok its autumn..what shall we do children? hand painting,glueing leaf prints..they eat the paint, they eat the leaves and glue and generally only want to run around practising their new walking skills.. I generally watch what they prefer to do or what takes their interest and elaborate on that in as much as i can with littlies..my friend had hers last week and she found it very intensive and she kept on about paperwork,paperwork,paperwork all the tim e..not what she was actually doing with the kids and said she had good but still had a lot to work on ..she is a brilliant childminder and had everything up to spec but she still pulled her up about a lot of things..to be honest when they call me i shall tell the truth!!! i havent even done the EYfs course or read anything about it[ ive been on maternity leave and trust me had better things to do with my time!!] Iam not going to kill myself and ruin the enjoyment of looking after kids just because OFSTED said so..arrggh!!!im sooo annoyed thinking about it..oh by the way the inspector said more things were going to change again but wouldnt elaborate!!! To b honest i think i will give up childminding and be a cleaner!!!more money per hour thank you and no paperwork....!!! sorry for the long rant

bambi! you are feeling just the same as i at the moment,i could have written that rant myself!!

katy i dont think i do still have your email,i shall cat you.....
thanks you!

Ok

I'm off out now - but I will help all I can

Hi Katy, do yous till havemy email?, culd you send it to me aswell? as i 'think' im doing everything right but when i hear everyone so worried i wonder why im not flapping and think i must be missing something???

KM - can you email me too?

I am pretty much in same boat as smeeinit.

Out of interest only as I do planning on implementing EYFS, if Ofsted did inspect a cm and they weren't working to the EYFS what would happen to them??

i would think theyd give them a low grade and a huge list of what to have in place at the next (id assume earlier) inspection?

well i think im doing it right but would love to see yours km, could i have a copy please

I'm confused who has had & who hasn't

I'm being a bit dim

Umm contact me (it's on my website on my profile) if you want it & I haven't sent it.........sorry - can't cope

katymac you are a true gem!
i have recieved email,many many thanks.

Does it help?

Does it make sense?

It's all very well passing stuff out but I need to know if it works for people (& if it doesn't why not)

This is partly because I am a bit OCD & partly because I am doing an OU course about systems & change management

yes makes perfect sense katy...
all very well set out and easy to understand and follow.

I am so insecure

BIG THANKYOU to Katymac..youre a star

havent got it chick, but still have your email i think?..does your surname start with M??

yep

Hi Katymac

I have emailed you. Can I please have a copy too?? Am sure that the way I am doing things is not the quickest! Thanks

I haven't received it yet Tan

Hi KM, How do I get your e-mail to recieve your info if thats at all possible!? Would love to know how you're doing it. I have tried to sort myself out with eyfs but just wondering if I'm there yet!?
