A mock A&R (Assessment and Rating) can provide valuable insights into a childcare or early learning service’s strengths and areas for improvement. It can also provide for additional guidance on exceeding themes and how they were communicated and demonstrated to an external party. While the specific feedback will vary depending on the individual service, you can expect three main forms of feedback:

  1. Feedback on how the leadership session went and what could be done to further articulate your practices.
  2. Feedback on your service, including exceeding themes evidence, areas for improvement, unidentified strengths and potential compliance and regulatory fixes.
  3. Overall feedback on how the assessment and rating went, and what could be done to further support your service to achieve a higher rating.
