Upcoming webinar: ‘Preparing for an early years Ofsted inspection’
On 7 November 2023, Connect Childcare will host its next webinar covering each of the necessary steps UK nurseries can take to prepare for an upcoming Ofsted inspection.
In collaboration with Julia Maynard, childcare director at Happy Orkids, the webinar will uncover how the Ofsted methodology is used during an inspection — including how this relates to the early years foundation stage (EYFS) — as well as the contents of the corresponding handbook and documentation requirements of the nursery provider.
Our webinar, “How to prepare for an early year’s Ofsted inspection”, will also address the changes to the recent guidance announced in September 2023, what nursery managers can expect during future visits, and how they can best prepare the early years professionals they employ.
