Is There Such A Thing...?

Guest · 2006-11-22T22:17:52+0000

I am in the process of evaluating our training policy (yet again, I changed my mind ) for my FD assessment over the next 3 weeks, and there is a line in there that basically says, staff will be sent on courses in child care at NVQ Levels 1, 2 or 3 as appropriate. I have never heard of an NVQ Level 1 course, let alone anybody that holds a level 1, so was wondering if there was such a thing and if so, how would a person stand in terms of level of qualification within the nursery? For example, when I started in child care, a level 2 qualified person was a qualified nursery assistant and the level 3 was a senior qualified practitioner (although not necessarily a senior in their setting). Now it seems that this has changed and a level 2 is now called a nursery nurse, as is a level 3 qualified person. Also, how do Ofsted view the whole qualifications business? If there is such a thing as a level 1 qualification, is it "recognised" by Ofsted? Sorry, a lot of jumbled questions going on there, but the answers, I am hoping will form part of my evaluation for my module assessment. Thanks in advance! (Don't think I've ever used that smilie before!)
