Guest Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 Hello all... this is the first time I've been on since the summer hols. Hope you all had a good BREAK! I was just making a new sign for the door through to our department and this discussion arose. What do you think?
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 Hello all... this is the first time I've been on since the summer hols. Hope you all had a good BREAK! I was just making a new sign for the door through to our department and this discussion arose. What do you think? 38480[/snapback] We've always called ourselves an Early Years Unit (nursery & reception in two ajoining rooms with shared areas) Now we've become fully integrated with all Foundation stage children using ALL areas and ALL staff working together in teaching and planning for learning we call ourselves a Foundation Stage Unit At least it hilights the changes to parents!
Guest Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 I'm not in a school, and I haven't voted because I call myself both; "The Foundation Years Preschool" (Foundation and Early Years combined) Peggy
AnonyMouse_3307 Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 I think of FS as 3-5yrs and Eys as 0- 5 (or 6 if I'm doing transition!!) Cx
AnonyMouse_2776 Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 It depends of the age group you have .
Guest Posted September 23, 2005 Posted September 23, 2005 We have children in our group from 2 1/2 to 5. I definitely think of myself as an Early Years practitioner. I love your group name Peggy: very clever indeed! Maz
Guest Posted September 24, 2005 Posted September 24, 2005 I feel we're both - foundation stage when we talk about curriculum stuff withe our nursery, but an early years department at school which covers nursery to Year 2. Marie
