This article has been brought to you by Slough Borough Council's Early Years and Prevention Service Lead, Michael Jarrett, for the attention of all Early Years providers, including childminders.
Ofsted will soon be running a series of Education Inspection Framework (EIF) roadshows for Early Years (EY) providers. These events will be held regionally across the country, between February and March this year and will offer the opportunity to find out about the key aspects of the EIF.
These half-day events will offer the opportunity to learn about early emerging findings from the EIF. Two representatives from your provider are welcome to attend each session. Each person attending will need to register separately. Current Ofsted Inspectors (OIs) should not attend this event.
Please note that there is no charge for attending one of these events. Spaces are available on a first-come-first-serve basis.
If you are interested in attending one of these events, please register for your place here where you will be able to find timings, locations and venue details.
When registering for an event, please select the ‘Early Years’ remit and then select your regional location.
Please do not hesitate to contact us at events@ofsted.gov.uk should you have any questions.
