Successful Early Years Ofsted Inspections: Thriving Children, Confident Staff
Autor Julian Grenieren Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 noi 2016
The stakes have never been higher: Ofsted have a new, tougher inspection framework for the early years. If you are judged to be less than good, you risk losing funding for places. A reputation that took years to build can vanish overnight.
But instead of hiding behind the “Ofsted monster” to get things done, Early Years expert Julian Grenier argues that it’s time to do what’s right for children and families, and build long-lasting and effective provision.
Completely up to date with Ofsted’s new Common Inspection Framework and avoiding a ‘tick-box’ approach to preparation, Julian focuses on the importance of developing your provision and your team up to and beyond inspection day. It is accompanied by easy-to-use time-saving pro formas and self-reflective documents that can be downloaded online for free.
This book is ideal for head teachers, senior leaders, EYFS co-ordinators, nursery managers and Early Years practitioners.
“We had our Ofsted Inspection on May 31st and achieved an Outstanding grade which we are very proud of, as you might imagine! I usedSuccessful Early Years Ofsted Inspectionsto focus my thoughts when preparing for the inspection and I am sure it was a contributory factor in our grade.”
-Wendy Taylor, Nursery Manager, Acorns Nursery

Recenzii
In
‘Successful
Early
Years
Ofsted
Inspections’
by
Julian
Grenier, it's refreshing
to
see
a
focus
on
pedagogy
practice
and whole-team approach,
starting with
the
children
as
a
priority.
Julian
reinforces
the
point
that
settings
and
schools
should
focus
on
quality, examining what
they do and
how
this has
an
impact
on
children’s
current
and long-term learning
and
development.
Julian
has
reflected
on
research,
and
provides
case
studies
and helpful, easy-to-use, self-reflective
documents, providing a 360-degree approach
to
Ofsted
inspections. Indeed,
as
Julian
believes:
‘Thriving
Children,
Confident
Staff’ are the
essential
ingredients
of
an
outstanding
setting
or
school.
This book provides navigational tools which help leaders and managers of early childhood practice, working in a range of settings , to find their way through the complexities of the work they do, and to deepen their sense of fulfilment in working with the children, families and staff as well as the challenges they deal with daily.
The information presented has great clarity and is very accessible to read. There is enjoyable provocation towards thought and reflection, with practical guidance to help leaders and managers into ‘discussion, debate and professional dialogue’ with staff and families.
Whilst acknowledging its importance, it sets Ofsted in a contextualised framework such that ‘the tail does not wag the dog’, and it shows the pitfalls of responding to ‘every fashion, whim or headline’. The case studies provide invaluable help in developing and sustaining quality of practice, so that children are given of the best in this short but important phase of their lives. This book will guide, support and help the reader to be strong through their journey.
Early Years expert Julian Grenier argues that it’s time to do what’s right for children and families, and build long-lasting and effective provision which is not simply focused on Ofsted results but which is always aspirational. Completely up to date with Ofsted’s new Common Inspection Framework and avoiding a ‘tick-box’ approach to preparation, Julian focuses on the importance of developing your provision and your team up to and beyond inspection day.
It is accompanied by easy-to-use time-saving pro formas and self-reflective documents that can be downloaded online for free - these are valuable documents which help to focus attention on key areas. A practical, down-to-earth book that will help embed good practice.
The author is highly respected throughout the sector for this work, and the book is completely up-to-date with the latest Common Inspection Framework. One of the strengths of the book is that it avoids a 'tick-box' approach to 'passing inspections', a trap that would be easy to fall into. Instead, the author guides you through processes of improvement, such as building staff skills and morale, and handily details the inspection framework.
