Help....this is going to be complicated to explain and I don't know why I am posting really but this may be of use for me.....bear with me...I am about to start as Floor manager at a setting..my job description involves planning and structuring the observation, planning evaluation cycle and guiding staff through a system that works (they didn't have one before). Ok so the setting has a Nursery Manager who is now devotin her time to more administrative aspects - they have got me as she could never quite get to terms with the EYFS and the obseravtion and all that is involved with that...plus no existing members of staff wanted to take on this role.......obviously I will endeavour to involve the team in the whole process...my problem is that I have met with the manager several times and aaaarrrrgggghhh she keeps telling me how to do it all...I know how it should be done and have been taken on to do it in my qualified status...she seems, however reluctant to comply albeit welcomign the opportunity for me to take it all on. I think the main stumbling block I have is that when I say/suggest how the system will work she immediately contests it and offers her opinions ...for instance...I am proposing that we have individual files to record child records in (small plastic wallets - similar to what I have used in the past) as opposed to the file they have now with all key worker children in one file divided in to sections......to me this is how I should like it to be stored for ease of access, for individual confidentiality etc but when I suggested it she says No i don't think so...and tells me lots of reasons of how her system works...I guess my point is I am being stopped from carrying out what they have employed me to do? I need to speak to the committee chair who has previously told me that I can run with my ideas and have autonomony in the planning area of the nursery....it is so frustrating as everything I suggest is questioned..........I feel as if I am being managed by the Admin manager although I am supposed to be answerable to the Chair? Also I think I mentioned before that she has certain principles that she wants used: if a child gets anything out to use they have to pack it away before moving on to the next thing....I suggested that this may interrupt their play...am I wrong? I realise that children need to respect the resources and if they are tipping stuff up wildly then they need to be asked to tidy up but ....really everything they touch? Anyway I have typed and typed and feel a little better but still daunted about the new position......I have spent time laminating and preparing a birthday timeline to be told that she doesn't like too much stuff on the walls.....I feel our job descriptions are confused ...when we went through them with the committee it was fine but in reality they are confused.
