I started to do mine back in April , and now all funding for NVQs across the board has been withdrawn !!!!
( obviously just in this area?) so unless i want to pay £650 to continue i have to wait until Sept to see if funding is avaiable for the new one that is replacing NVQ.
Its not something i really wanted to do to be honest , after 30 yr childminding its not going to be of use to further my career, but i now cannot do sponsored childcare for SS unless i have this qualifcation and as really enjoy that side of my work and have no plans to retire yet !!!!!! i decided to go for it . I will admit i was finding it difficult in places ,but don't think it was the right time fo me to start as i have health problems at the moment and the stress was not good .
There is a lot of helpful info on here (and other sites,) i have to say a big thank you to several ladies on here who were really kind and generous with their help . I can't really help you with your other questions as i did not get far .
I'm sure you will be fine , Good Luck
