    There is no current requirement to have any qualification other than the introduction to childminding course

    Are they still trying to push it through that all minders should have a level 3 by 2015 still?

    If they want everyone to have a level 3 then they'd better start paying for people to do it.

    There was LOADS of funding for it, I am guessing much of it has been withdrawn now though

    worth checking with your EY team/LA

    just a level 3 - no they are different.
    It would be worth checking with your LA/EY team to see if anything is available
