I have just spoken to DfES about getting a copy of 'English as an Additional Language - best practice' (Ref 00683-2007BKT-EN) and I asked about the EYFS update...

Would I like to call back in early summer! :eek:

Even funnier - we were all told on our DHC course last week that we need to get this book and study it and use it as we will be tested on both in our inspections!! Yes thank you very much our course lasts 10wks not 10mths! That just made me worry even more!

[Donkey]

eh????? something else we need to know??

my brain is hurting!!!

[Pipsqueak]

:D Techinically it is "early summer" (it is british summertime!) lol.

so if you have the old copy you can't get a new copy - durrrrrrr - clever you Blaze I will do just that and get one delivered to my neighbour mind you I will have to remember I have done that and tell her :D

[Donkey]

You know how we are going to be following the Early Years Foundation Stage (eyfs) from September this year?

You know how they sent out packs to every childminder?

Well... there were a few... shall we say... oopsies...

So they are re-printing.

First it was an availability date of January, then April... now early summer... and to make matters worse they are telling Blaze that as she already has one, she can't have a new one! And since a lot of us are in the position of already having one pack... presumably we won't get a replacement either.

All good fun! Hope it makes sense now! :D

i was meaning...

I have just spoken to DfES about getting a copy of 'English as an Additional Language - best practice' (Ref 00683-2007BKT-EN)...


i have eyfs from cis, do i have to order another, obv if there is revisions then that means yes!!!

but the english as an ad language?

thinking it might be a good idea to order this, thought you could do it online, meaning the english as an ad lang

Yes but you might not get one ... cos they are saying if you have one already then you can't have another... that's where the confusion is coming from :panic:

[Donkey]

ahhh but dcfs do not know that I already have a copy of the eyfs :D

[sarah707]

Dear XXX

Thank you for your recent order.

Unfortunately the EYFS is unavailable at present and we are unsure at present when it will be available to order.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

Please note that you can view, order and download publications at http://www.teachernet.gov.uk/ or www.everychildmatters.gov.uk/

Kind regards

If you are coming to the Yorkshire and Humber ARM in Scunthorpe on May 17th you will get a copy of this (at least I think it is this) and the other one about boys (sorry can't rememebr the name of it) in your goodie bag. How do I know because I am stuffing 100 carrier bags and have just done these into it. lol

[Donkey]

im at my dqp course on the 17th of may, if you wanted to post me a bag though :laughing: :laughing:
I would be very appreciative and would of course cover you postage and packing costs :)
