Play is full of opportunities for learning, but it’s also one of the most natural forms of therapy we have available. ~ Amanda Morgan
So interesting. The LA thought Ruth Perry was an “absolutely outstanding head” but were terrified of alienating an inspector who would visit other local schools by complaining. It’s a system sustained by fear at all levels.

@knutsfordchildm @Ofstednews Yes as regulator & inspector CMs are completely at their mercy, no protection that sch have, extremely vulnerable to malicious complaints, often action taken is disproportionate to concerns. We have lost so many incredible CM careers & livelihoods lost. There must be a better way
@knutsfordchildm @Ofstednews An amazing CM friend over the last yr has had 2incidents with families unpaid invoices, parents contact ofsted with safeguarding complaints to avoid paying. I have seen mums forums recommend it as a way of breaking contract. CM are so vulnerable to abuse
@knutsfordchildm Thanks for the heads-up Sarah - we are looking to correct this. And thanks for filling it out!
@knutsfordchildm Excellent! Say a big hello from me. I hope they find something good!
@knutsfordchildm @Ofstednews @SkyNews @EYAlliance Apparently, according to this article, Sunak said "the policy was "designed in consultation with the sector". Those in a position of authority in our sector - e.g. childcare.co.uk, early years alliance and pacey, should surely now be asking for evidence of this?
So if they both muster knights and archers in their respective dukedoms then advance at similar speeds, the battle will take place somewhere on the northern fringe of London, maybe in car park at the Waltham Cross Homebase

It is with sadness that we announce the closure of Ceeda with effect from 1 May 2022. It has been our great privilege to work with the early years sector over the last 2 decades. We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported and taken part in our research.
Just back from visiting Pete. He’s in good spirits and had another antibiotic IV while I was there. He couldn’t be in better hands. The NHS is absolutely marvellous. We are so grateful for the wonderful care he’s getting.
