麻花影视welcomes proposal to change no-notice routine inspections for early years

27th March 2015

Responding to Nick Hudson鈥檚 comments in Nursery World today about the proposal to end routine no-notice inspections of early years settings, 麻花影视chief executive Neil Leitch said:

鈥淭he 麻花影视welcomes news that early years settings are likely to receive identical notice periods for routine Ofsted inspections as schools.

"The change, proposed in the Common Inspection Framework, brings equity and consistency across the inspection process and 麻花影视members will be pleased that this anomaly is likely to be addressed in the coming months.鈥
