 All settings who bought the Ofsted package last year and have been inspected since accessing the training, have consistently achieved Good overall Ofsted inspection judgements. These providers attended the webinars, received mock learning walks from their linked Early Years Quality and Sufficiency Officer and their staff teams benefitted from receiving an Ofsted inspection workshop at their setting.
Did you know you are able to use your EYPP funding to pay for the package?
 The Ofsted package is suitable for Ofsted registered early years providers such as childminders, nurseries, and pre-schools. The webinars, visit and onsite training included in the package are written in accordance with Ofsted's early years inspection handbook. You'll receive 12 hours of support for just £320! This includes 4 hours within your setting!
 Webinars will focus on each of the Ofsted judgements as described in the early years inspection handbook:
10 October - Quality of Education
We will share the key principles of this judgement such as the EYFS curriculum, teaching, assessment and cultural capital.
21 November - Behaviour and Attitudes
We will share the key principles of this judgement such as characteristics of effective learning, promoting attendance, helping children to manage their own feelings and behaviour and how they relate to others.
10 December - Personal Development
We will share the key principles of this judgement such as developing children's understanding of fundamental British values, supporting them to have healthy lifestyles and an awareness of good hygiene and how to keep themselves safe online.
23 January - Leadership and Management
We will share the key principles of this judgement such as how you support staff's professional development and wellbeing and your safeguarding practice and policy.
At each of these webinars you will have the opportunity to consider how you are currently performing against the grade descriptors for each judgement and identify priorities for improvement. You will come away with a greater understanding of the Ofsted inspection judgement and practical tips to share with your team.
