Ready! Set! Inspect! Prepare for Successful Nursery Inspections
|
Hello and Good Day Reader, You have been selected to receive a survey from Professional Minds MEA, the first choice for tangible preschool solutions in the UAE and beyond. My recent research has shown that the nursery inspections will take place in Sharjah, UAE in April and May 2024. For nursery owners and leaders, that means quick and effective preparation. My work as head of kindergarten As the previous and founding head of the kindergarten at Raffles International School, Dubai, I learned how to lead my team to 'outstanding' results when the KHDA inspected. This 'outstanding' accolade was given to the KG section three times in a row, under my leadership of a team of 40. I mention this only to show that I have worked out a strategy for successful results when preparing for inspections of preschools/kindergartens/nurseries. Can any nursery get an outstanding result? I believe that with time, commitment, consistency and determination to establish a quality-driven setting, many nurseries can become outstanding. The problem I have seen over the 15+ years of working in the UAE, evidenced by my research, is that there are sometimes limiting factors. For example:
Inspections The question for you may be: 'How do I prepare for an inspection'? The answer: Begin with the end in mind. Set yourself a goal to succeed and take it from there. Survey to get started If you are getting ready for inspections, why not complete a short survey about inspections? It will take you less than five minutes.

Hello Reader, Why Put Flowers in the Fridge? Who does that? Why is this a thing?! For me, it’s about preservation. Holding on to a good feeling. Knowing that if the flowers are left out in the heat of the UAE (minus air conditioning), they will wilt earlier and then the reminder of joy at the time of receipt will also wane quickly. But does it make sense:)? The Beginning Putting flowers in the fridge started at least a year ago when I received a massive bouquet of flowers from my sister and...
Hello Reader, Anecdotes speak for themselves I trust that you are having a good weekend! I have had a peaceful one so far. I value peace. Peace of mind. Peace in everyday processes like rising, going to the gym, writing emails like this one. As one day leads to the next, by grace, I embrace what is simple and makes sense. You may have noticed that I like story. Anecdotes often provide a context. Today my story is values-based. I have lived in the UAE for over 20 years and view it as my home,...
