AnonyMouse_25331 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 Just wondered what job titles people use..... We have Supervisor Deputy Supervisor Pre-school assistant but now we have just employed 2 more member of staff, who will be working just a few hours a week, they won't have key children and will be very new to the role, although both have 'helped out' at lunchtimes. These two members of staff are now to be considered 'proper' staff and not just helpers, they will be learning more about the EYFS, observations, training courses, etc., the emphasis has very much changed from 'just another adult' to a full staff member supporting the children. However, I think there should be some distinction between our Pre-school assistant who is studying Level 2 and has 4 year's experience and these ladies. Does anyone have any suggestions on how their titles can be different whilst reflecting their role and experience? Thank you!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_3735 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 (edited) we had pre-school staff for unqualified / new until they had a level 2... then we used similar to you.. (ours was manager and deputy, assistant, staff.. and we had apprentices as well.. ) practitioner? but to me it really describes all who work with the children..

AnonyMouse_8466 Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 We have talked about this quite a lot in our setting. In the end we agreed on:- Senior Early Years Practitioner - Level 6 Early Years Practitioner - Level 3 Assistant Early Years Practitioner - Level 2/unqualified. Bit academic for us now, but the theory was there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 2, 2011 Share Posted May 2, 2011 We have Managing Supervisor Deputy Supervisor Qualified key people (who are Senco and CPLP) unqualified key people and support staff. When I started support staff were paid 'helpers' there to cut templates, clean up the paint pots etc. Now we no longer have templates(!), since I started their role has changed and they sound very much like the people you have taken on, there to be learn more about the roles in general, and SUPPORT where needed, with the children or the adults depending on what needs doing. They do not have key children HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
