Any guidance for maintained nursery providers to give to parents wanting 30hrs?

Question from a member:

Hi there

Can anyone shed any light on training being given to maintained nurseries regarding 30 hours provision? In particular how to share this with parents too. It appears that this is only being given to the private sector at present. If so why is this not being given to all parties?

Not sure what you mean - my LA did all briefings etc for anyone delivering EYFS, including schools. All info has been available to anyone via the various webstes etc.

I'm not aware of any 'training' available to anyone in our area (We're PVI) we did have a ridiculous conversation about it early on...but I can wholeheartedly say we have learnt on the job!!!! I would suggest getting together with other maintained providers locally and have a chat with them . One of our local schools is offering and has had a  good take-up if there's anything in particular you would like to know I can email the team for you and get an answer.

Plenty of 'training' offered here - unfortunately most of it was of the "oh don't actually know the answer to that yet" variety

In fairness LAs really didn't have any information - it all came out to us as it came out to everyone, slowly!!

I know - it was all a bit frustrating for the LA as well as practitioners
