Level 3 ??

[adedwards68]

I've just returned to childminding and had thought I might do the level 3 but don't know now whether I should bother
Some LAs don't require it now for funding but are CMs still going to be expected to have it
Working full time and having 4 if my own children I don't get a lot of spare time

I already had a level 3 childcare qualification from 2003 I re-did the NVQ L3CCLD a couple of years ago. Of the 8 people on the course 2 had lvl 4 childcare qualifications, 4 had level 3 and one a NNEB. We were all doing it to refresh and renew our knowledge. It was hard we were all working full-time, we all ahd families but I am very glad that I did it. It is never a waste of time to gain new qualifications
