Hi all Have got a 6th form teacher coming to look round our setting tomorrow to perhaps take on deputy job (had originally applied for bank staff). Chair says that she will be able to do it as she will be able to fast track on an NVQ 3 childcare in 3 months (thats if she wants too). Anyone heard of this? Thanks for any info!

Hi I have a member of staff in our setting who has almost completed her level 2 NVQ but has got stuck on a particular area. I have read through it several times and wondered if someone could put it into English for me K2D88 Knowledge Specification 'How the activities and experiences for children and babies and children under 3 years relates to formal curriculum frameworks and frameworks for babies and young children in your home country ???? Hopefully someone has come accross this jargon before ha ha! Many thanks ... dottyp

Hello everyone. I'm just trying to do this question: How can you support children's resilience according to the child's age, needs and abilities? I've written about creating the right envrionment to foster positive feelings about themselves, the need to help a child be unafraid of failure when trying new activities. But I'm not sure if this is right? I'd be very thankful if anyone could give me a push in the right direction? Thank you! BlueBelle

I'm hoping someone can help me.. as I've looked on the internet and found nothing related to this at all! Part of one of my questions is, how does gender influence a child's development? All I can find on the internet is about how TV influences gender, oh and an article about what influences people to have sex changes.. Neither of which were any help to me.. Can anybody offer me any suggestions? Mrs Weasley

I have only got the unit 301 breakdown and its really helping me get to know my knowledge and where to link it in. could do with the other units though as am only covering 301? Any ideas when we are going to be able to access ALL knowledge? Many thanks for such a fab forum!!!

Hullo. Yesterday I was answering a series of questions about safety factors, recognised standards of toys, etc. And I have to answer the question "Why is it important to follow manufacturers' guidelines" I've written about a few things, including the importance of following assembly instructions correctly. Then I went on to give examples of things that could be put together incorrectly which may harm a child. I used a climbing frame as a big thing, but I'm really struggling to think of something small. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks a lot! Mrs Weasley

Does anyone know if I should be answering the knowledge points theoretically, based on what we've been told. Or relating to my setting? Or does it not matter?! Thanks, Mrs Weasley
