Ok I decided I am far too impatient and want to get my Foundation Degree as soon as possible. I'm starting E215 in October and the other two in Feb, so they will overlap from feb-May, but will be completely finished by October 2010. I know I am am mad, but I do have the support of family, staff, committee who know that between Feb and May I will hardly be in work, but at home studying! What I need to know is - what can I be doing to prepare for E215 (I will continue to collect evidence between now and then). What are RLO's?

After reading some of the other postings, I wondered if any of you would help me by participating in my research into creativity in the early years. I have compiled a questionnaire to explore whether creativity is being promoted in settings and if staff are using the new EYFS to support their planning. Thanks in advance. If there is a problem downloading I will put my email address in the forum. What_type_of_setting_do_you_work_in.doc
