Re: 4 YEAR OLDS IN FULLTIME SCHOOL!
I called again this morning.
This time she went and checked with a supervisor before answering.
Basically, yes, the are classed as 5 in term time but in the hoilidays they are classed as under 5's. So I had a bit of a rant and then said how ridiculous it all was and what happens about if your child is ill and off for a day - does that mean im over my numbers etc??? Was all a bit wishy washy and to be honest the fact that she didnt know and had to go and check shows that they arent receiving the correct training!
Apparently if this rule is an issue for us then we should just write to inspection support and ask for a variation for the holidays.
So can anyone clarify this.... is this only when the EYFS comes in or technically are there minders over their numbers now according to this ridiculous rule?
