Courses

Two courses ready, the rest up to you

We would rather build two courses people actually finish than twelve nobody starts. Both of ours are below — one for parents, one for childminders. What comes next depends on what you tell us you need.

Childminder CPD: Ofsted-Ready Practice

A calm, practical walkthrough of how inspection actually works under the framework in use from 1 September 2026 — the 7 evaluation areas, the notification and planning calls, what an inspector does across a typical 3-hour visit, and how the report card works. Built for childminders specifically, not adapted from a nursery script.

What you’ll walk away with

  • What actually changed from September 2026, and why the single overall grade disappearing matters for you
  • Exactly what happens on the notification call and the planning call — and that you don’t need a nominee or anyone else on the line
  • What an inspector will and won’t ask to see in a home setting, so you stop over-preparing for things that don’t count
  • How each of the 7 evaluation areas actually shows up in a childminding day, not a nursery classroom
  • What ‘expected standard’, ‘needs attention’ and ‘urgent improvement’ mean for your next inspection date
  • A printable certificate for your CPD record

What’s inside

  1. What changed, and why it matters for childminders
  2. The notification call and the planning call
  3. Inspection day, hour by hour
  4. Curriculum, teaching and achievement in a home setting
  5. Welfare, wellbeing, behaviour and routines
  6. Safeguarding as its own graded area
  7. Inclusion, leadership, and what happens after

What we’re considering next

None of these are built yet. The order depends entirely on what people tell us they need.

Which of these would you actually pay for — and what is missing from the list?

We only use your email for what you asked for. No newsletter you didn’t ask for, and you can stop any time.
