Anyone had a change of premises inspection?

Hi there, I have just moved house and am about to have Ofsted round to inspect. Just wondering if anyone has been through this process and know if the inspector will want to do a full inspection (look at all paperwork etc) or just inspect the premises? Not sure what to expect. Thanks!

Had one 3yrs ago, she had a mooch about a cuppa tea, asked about how many mindees we wanted, if we wanted to increase numbers. From what I remember I don't even think she looked at the new RA's, said the floor fireplans were good though - are on the wall - definately didnt look at anything else remotely paperworkey. Just a straightforward look around the house in and out.

We moved house about 6 months ago and for some reason I wasn't inspected at all and just sent a new certificate! I was a bit Not complaining though...

I have moved twice in 13 months, both times just sent in a risk assessment and floor plan and was sent a new certificate.

Thanks for the replies. Sent in my risk assessments and new floor plan and have been told because I've been minding for less than 6 mths, and haven't had my first proper inspection yet, I will have to have an inspection. Boo! At least it will all be over in a week or so and I can relax for...how long? 3 years is it?
