4 in the under 5 catergory ?
Now looking at the revised EYFS it states 3 under 5 can be exceeded if caring for own baby or sibling but are these the only exceptions ?
I currently have 4 under 5 and only 1 in my 5-8 catergory so still in my numbers and i work with an assistant however my assistant is leaving and I do not necessarily want to replace him. If he leaves do i need to give notice to one of my children to take it back to 3 under 5 or can i keep all 4 under the old heading of continuity of care ?
Have tried phoning OFSTED but was on hold for 20 mins so gave up !!
Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks
