Early Years bite-size CPD

A quality workforce focused on learning and development and health and safety

"1.14 All children deserve high-quality early education and care. This requires a quality workforce. A well-trained, skilled childminder can help every child achieve the best possible educational outcomes. Children need to build an attachment with their key person for their confidence and wellbeing. The key person also promotes children’s learning by developing a deep understanding of their individual needs and children
can particularly benefit from their modelling and support. The requirements in relation to workforce training and responsibilities, including that of the key person, are outlined in Section 3 but they are equally important for children’s learning and development as they are for their safety and welfare."
