| The new Ofsted – the
Office for Standards in Education, Children's
Services and Skills – came into being
on 1 April 2007. It brings together the wide
experience of four formerly separate inspectorates.
It will inspect and regulate care for children
and young people, and inspect education and
training for learners of all ages.

| "A childminder is someone
who looks after other people’s children
usually in the childminders own home. Childminders
are self employed, and, most will provide you
with childcare between the hours of 8am and
6pm. All childminders are registered with OfSTED
and inspected on a regular basis." |
