Ratios...anyone Else In Fsu That Is Not On Ey Register?

[Guest]

Hi there,

 

Having just moved into my 2nd post in a voluntary aided school's pre-school (this time it is a Foundation Base or FSU too) I am finding that

the ratios are more errr 'flexible' and understand this to be as they are not on the Early Years Register. I am also an EYP so I know that in theory I could operate on 1:13 when the leader is on PPA but in practice this presents a challenge.

Also at a recent seminar on the new EYFS i know staff deployment is mentioned, but it again is open to interpretation.....

i just wondered what other people's experiences, views and advice was on how best to meet the children's needs.

 

Thanks all

The ratio in a school reception class would be 1:30. Good practice would put 2 adults in there.

Not sure how this works in FSU.
