[Summerfruit]

And...I got GOOD !!! Yeahhhhhhhhhh !!! Its over, months of worrying, of waiting, its over !!!!! Thank you to all of you, who gave me tips, pats in the back...everything !!!!

Wow well done, fab birthday present!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm waiting for mine and dreading it, though I am secretly hoping for a good and maybe a couple of outstandings would be nice)

I know the feeling ! I had 2 inspectors this morning, both asking me questions ! The mindees were great and I had a lot to talk about.. I dont think I got any outstanding but never mind, its my first inspection !!!! Hope your inspection goes well too !

well done, summerfruit! i also was graded Good in June this year and was delighted! the inspector said it is more difficult to be awarded Good under EYFS than it was before Sept 2008.

and Happy Birthday, of course!

Wow...If you knew all the sleepless night I had about it..I tought everything I was doing was wrong !!! Well done on us for getting good !

Yaaaay! Well done.

Bit shocked at 2 inspectors, only ever had 1 at a time, is this a new thing do you think or a one off?

Have a good b/day w/end x

I was going to mail you ! I think it was a one off, I was supposed to have a main inspector and the senior inspector observing..They ended up both asking me question about how I was going to deal with this situation or this situation...It was stressful I was scared of the reaction of the children as they can scared of strangers but they have been total stars and acting normal ! I cant believe I got good in my first inspection, I was really thinking I was going to get satisfactory ! Thank at work for your support !

Congratulations and Happy Birthday! On Friday the 13th too - that must account for the 2 inspectors! Sounds like you were fab so well done for standing up to the pressure!

That reminds me I must look at that darned Sef at some point - will be coming to you for tips now

I didnt do the sef but that wrong of me, take the time to do it, its really important, I must have got a disatifactory because of that ! Thank you !!!
