Any of the Scots heard of this??

Mindee brought a letter home from Nursery about this new framework for children from 3-18 - sounds suspiciously like EYFS..............

There's info on the lts website with a link to early years at the bottom left. Only dipped ito it so far, but I think that it's just starting to roll out now, and isn't really active yet?
I tend to assume that the SCMA mag will have stuff in it when it bocomes relevant / necesary. Always good to know what's coming though. I would imagine that inspections are pretty much taken up with grading at the mo, without worrying too much about curriculum for excellence just yet.

I've not heard a thing about it and a bit worried that I should be doing stuff, documenting etc and I haven't and will get into trouble come inspection time.

O0o0h this is quite a big deal on our course!

Not much of a diff to what children will be learning, just slightly different slant on it, how they will be learning, seems a bit more social.

Try www.scotland.gov.uk for more info.

I've heard about it, but not felt any impact at all yet. My cousin / b/f has just trained as a primary teacher and is very keen on it.
So far care commission seem more pragmatic about such things, or maybe I've just been lucky with my CCO so far . . .
