AnonyMouse_13453 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I've just got my new contract to sign for NEG from the county, and one of the clauses says "At transition, from one provider to another, ensure that information about the child's achievements and progress towards the early learning goals is passed onto the receiving provider, using Children's Services' Progress Record" I've never seen one of these - has anyone else? We always use our own Learning Journey booklets - one copy with loads of stuff in for the parents and another general overview goes to the school. What does anyone think? Has anyone got one of these? I've googled it but nothing has come up, I even went on the County website to see if there was anything on there, but no luck Obviously I have to sign the form or we get no NEG but I've emailed them to ask what it is - no reply as yet so perhaps they don't know either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_13453 Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 Well they've still not emailed me back - this doesn't sound hopeful! Might try and ring them later on - in the meantime if anyone has any bright ideas....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_665 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 yes i think i know what you are talking about in gloucestershire we have a transfer record to complete. it is basically a doubled sided a4 sheet with the six areas of learning on. you write which aged range your child has acheived and then comments in a small box. this is then passed onto school. angela Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_13453 Posted October 21, 2008 Author Share Posted October 21, 2008 Well i rang them and the lady who apparently sent me the contract didn't know what one was either! She's getting someone else in the EY team to 'find out'. Sounds good doesn't it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_13453 Posted November 9, 2008 Author Share Posted November 9, 2008 Would you believe that no-one in our County Sure Start team can tell me what this is! I've had to send the contract back, signed, but with a post-it attached as a codicil to the agreement! Apparently no-one else in the county has questioned it - they've all just signed it. I'm a bit flabbergasted to be honest, it's obviously and agreement they have cribbed from some other county if they don't know what it says! It also asks for us to send in our contract with parents - which I have, but the woman I spoke to on the phone said that many settings had sent in their agreement with parents about Nursery Grant (not claiming elsewhere) and when I asked if this what what she wanted, or what I'd sent, she said she 'didn't know.....'

Guest Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 Don't worry you are not alone. I have just gone through our new NEF agreement with the LA and noted about a dozen points which I have never seen before and which need more explanation. I can pretty much guarantee that they will not be able to adequately explain them when I call tomorrow and someone is bound to say "Oh I didn't know it said that. I'd have to ask someone about it for you" and then won't ring back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
