LEA - Somerset

 

Went to a briefing at a providers meeting way back in Oct/Nov and am off for 2 full day sessions at a rather posh vineyard. Can't wait!!

 

Everyone seems to be getting completely different training don't they.

It would seem that way Shelley-this is one of the reasons I asked the question. I was curious to find out what was being offered elsewhere. And the result has been very interesting.

We'll be interested to hear how you get on with the EYFS Certficate Dawn - there was a very long thread on here about that recently, discussing its merits!

So if the EYFS is statatory, who would be held accountable if people didnt implement it in September, citing a need to train first. Would the government blame local councils for not putting on enough training, or would councils blame government for not a allowing for the demand, either on time or funding?

I'd see it as a government issue, afterall its their baby. But you'd think the training offered would be the same considering its a country wide thing.

I couldn't agree more Rea. If the government wants to introduce new initiatives then surely they should specify the sort of training we ALL should be having. It seems very unfair that some areas seem to be giving very specific training and others aren't.

But then again we've seen the big differences in the amount each local authority pays settings for nursery funding so why should we be surprised?

Probably too late-

 

I'm in Cambridgeshire. Skipped the briefing as was told it was a waste of time! Had the 1st training with preschools on unique child last term. Came home with head spinning not knowing what I was doing! Today had second training just with reception teachers on positive relationships and enabling environments. This one was better- looked a bit at assessment and planning but still came home with head spinning over not having enough time to fit everything in! 3rd one in summer is on learning and development.

Thats an awful lot of money to find.

Do you think these people and others like them are in league with the government? A lot of settings wont be able to fund these courses, so wont have access to training like a government funded setting would have maybe, so therefore Ofsted could say a setting is unsatisfactory, allow them to close, and hey presto, more need for government funded settings.

 

I am so cynical, but the same thought occured to me when I considered all the seetings who absolutley cant offer outdoor play and who wont be able to offer 3 hours.

I've just recently changed areas and am now back in Poole. I have missed training offered and cannot seem to get on anything - I will keep trying. I have enjoyed the pack and it is well thumbed - so doing my own familiarisation.

 

Anyone in Poole that knows anything about whats offered please help!!
