Hi, I know this is the right place to ask and I hope someone can help... I'm having aweful troubles finding some training for the new EYFS, I have been reading online to update my knowledge but have been un-successfull in getting onto any training. I've even heard that there are only briefings going on at the moment and the proper training isn't until September... I applied to go on one briefing but the course was full and now I can't find an alternative. Im in Cornwall and am willing to travel a bit as I feel it is really important to be ready for the new term in September. If anyone can help with any information, please, please can you message me. Many Than…

I am trying to work out ideas for tracking progress and create sheets and I was wondering what other people have come up with that could give me inspiration. I need to relay the information from the meetings I have been to and trying to get organised! Any help would be appreciated. in away I like that we the profiles are to be used as a reference as it means we are not focusing on getting the children to do certain things.

Leavers Reports

Im new to this forum, having just signed up tonight, and not sure I am posting this is the right section, so apologies if I am not. We have been having many discussions at work, in our Pre School, about leavers reports. We have always done them, split into the 6 learning areas, but basically just repeat what the development matters sheets and learning journeys say, so it has been questioned if we need them. I guess Im on here asking if any other setting does them, and if so, how? Many thanks

New Ilp

I'm playing around with the format for an new ILP and would like some feed back if anyone can help??? This would be an ilp for under 3's. I've based it on the circle in the development matters booklet. Small circle for 'unique child' name - and interests Middle circle would have a target for each of the 3 learning areas (page number of linking obs would be written next to target outer circle would be suggested activities or opportunities to link these together atm, we do an ilp for each child each month as long as they have hit target, but I feel this doesn't give children much time and often staff set easy targets that they know they can do alread…

Next Steps

Seeing as i got such a great response to my last question, I thought I'd post again about another current issue at work, and see how others do it..... This time it's next steps under fire. We currently do them termly, so 3 a year, and they are quite in depth. It spans over 2 A4 pages, with the following headings, all about me, which is a third of A4, aims (what the next steps are), strategies (how the next steps will be worked on ) and how these strategies will be met (they are long to write, boring to look at and take a long time to write and read). It's almost repetitive as well. The girls dread doing them as they take a long time, so am just wondering how of…
