RECENT UPDATES independent childminders need to be aware of –
- There will be a new Common Inspection Framework from Sept 2015 – information is FREE from Childcare.co.uk here - https://www.childcare.co.uk/informat...tion-framework
- The SEND Code of Practice is being revised from 1st April – make sure you have a copy in your computer files - https://www.gov.uk/government/public...actice-0-to-25.
- The PREVENT strategy has been put in place to protect vulnerable children from radicalisation. You need an awareness of it and should discuss it with parents. I have blogged about it here - https://knutsfordchildminding.wordpr...vent-strategy/.
- As part of the PREVENT strategy (and it will be an inspection outcome from Sept) there is a new requirement to teach children British values – information is FREE from Childcare.co.uk here - https://www.childcare.co.uk/informat...british-values.
- You need to know about the new baseline assessments from Sept so you can explain them to parents if their child is starting school - Informing parents about the baseline assessment.
- I have shared information about disqualification by association previously on the assistants page of our Independent Childminders website - Childminders and staff suitability -. This blog by Debbie Alcock gives more information and advice - Disqualification by association | Laura Henry Consultancy.
- The current inspection framework has been updated - https://www.gov.uk/government/upload...ember_2014.pdf.
- When updated information is available you will find it in the Independent Childminder newsletters here - Newsletters.
