Well done to you all!

You might have a great team behind you, but to get that result they also have a good person leading them! So sit back, relax and congratulate yourself on a job well done!

Enjoy the rest of the summer

Thanks everyone, but i'm not feeling to happy now. We're based in a leasure centre and not one manager has said well done or thanks for your hard work. I've only been working there for 8 months, and had to re start the whole setting due to ofsted shutting them down before i was taken on. and the ofsted report thr time before they got shut down wasn't very good. I just don't know how to feel... I don't know if i'm just being selfish but feel ive put in so much and no one cares.

I know just how you feel!!! We got a really good report - even to the point the only reason we didn't get outstanding was beyond our control. Owner very happy ~~~ BUT our local early years team sent us a 'snotty' letter asking where our action plan was the the one thing she picked up on ~~ even though if you read the actual report the inspector had picked up on the fact we had acknowleged the issue!!!!
A little 'well done' forn the EYAT wouldn't have gone amiss, and it was obvisous from the letter that they hadn'd bothered to read the whole report - just the recommendations!!!

This make me so cross, those on the 'outside rarely seem to appreciate the effort that goes into achieving this result.

To let them know on a more casual basis what it means, could you head your newsletter or communication method ~ Recent OFSTED inspection - GOOD ~ and then go into a few 'this means your child recieves lots of varied activities as we monitor their individual development' type statements ?.. you could also mention to the Centre's staff how great it is to be part of the Comapany & be able to build on the Business reputation that they have!!

You're providing them with a fab service so Huge Hugs for your achievement from here
