Hi,
I started a child this week (4 this month) who goes to school nursery. I collect him at 11.30-13.30 3 days and 11.30-16.30 1 day. Bearing in mind on the 3 days after getting home and having lunch there is about an hour and the other day less than 3 hours because of school run and the fact that his parents (teachers) would prefer him not to have structured activities after being at nursery, what would ofsted expect of me?
Mum is going to talk to the nursery for me tomorrow as I dont collect him. I have said that I could do with knowing from the nursery/parents where he is regarding his areas of learning. I did try to find out in a fun way today how far he could count, what letters he knew, colours and shapes. I thought I could then just note any advancement on these without instigating any learning activities, apart from having learning acitivities out which could help but he would have to choose to do them.
Ooh bit of a ramble there.
I would be grateful for any thoughts.
