Hi Everyone and Happy New Year ! I am undertaking research to complete the final Honours section of my degree in Early Years Leadership, and would be grateful to gather your views and opinions on quality in the Early Years built environment, with particular emphasis on the pros and cons of 'Pack Away' provision. I am aware of many 'Outstanding' Pack Away settings, and the dedication and hard work many within the Early Years workforce commit in order to achieve this. As such, part of this enquiry seeks to establish the main factors that contribute to this quality status, whilst considering whether overcoming any barriers to achieve this high quality is sustainab…

I think we are all in a state of limbo at the moment following recent reviews of qualification.. I have a degree in an unrelated subject and level 4 in childcare and intended to do my EYPS last year but after reading the Nutbrown review decided to wait and see what happens. The EYT is an option but as owner and manager of my setting I wanted to take a qualification more tailored to my needs and employ an EYT for working directly with the children. (I do spend a lot of time working with the children but am often pulled away by other responsibilities) but would have to undertake my maths and science GCSEs - they were O levels in my day. The existing level 5 City and Guilds …

Two hundred early years apprentices will benefit from an increased bursary of £3,000 (up from £1,500), with a further £300 available for training and study as part of the drive to attract high quality candidates to the profession.

6 hours ago Elizabeth Truss published her document on the New Early Years Educator and the criteria that will be required to work with early years ratios. Does anyone know if current level threes will have to retrain to meet this new criteria? I have staff that are due to finish the latest level Three in December 2013 and they are going to be distraught if their new qualification is not good enough. Help!
