On the first page :thumbsup: its talking about the foundation degree I am doing. The forum gets a mention too as it was Manjay who told me about the degree.

Yay fame at last!!

Well done you, it is funny seeing your name in print, and reading back things you have said or written!

How fab! I was just reading that & was wondering if it was someone from this forum :laughing:

I like the sound of the Foundation Degree. Would you recommend it?

wow! mine comes tomorrow. how did you come to be interviewed hon?

I would definately recommend it :thumbsup: It is so relevant to childminding - I have learned so much. It fits around the family (I have 4 kids) because I can study anytime I am free.

Manjay is doing it too - she does it half e learning and half classroom because she lives near the uni. Its great to know someone in the classroom too as you sometimes get 'inside info' iykwim.

I just had an e mail from NW saying my tutor had put my name forward and would I be interviewed.

just seen the thread in training - can't believe you are doing this with 4 kids of your own:eek:

Is it easily achieveable in the 2 years?
I've looked at other courses & they seem to say it could take 2 years, full time, so much longer part time.

At my age time isn't really on my side & I'd want to do something that didn't take years & years :laughing:

Yes it has to be achievable because we have deadlines. We cover 2 units a term and there are 2 assignments per unit.

I know what you mean - I wouldn't want it dragging on and on.

Juggler...the kids are a doddle its the husband who's a pain in the bum!! Nah he's pretty good really :o
