Anyone in here doing an NVQ2 in childcare?

[jellyjelly]

Anyone? I have a dilemma which i am trying to sort.

Want to be a nursery nurse but dont have a nvq at all but have done loads of other training. Have found a company that is will ing to pay for a student and train me up and they think that i can do an nvq in 6 months and then nvq 3 in another 6 months, menaing that i could be nvq 3 in a year.

In preparation can you tell me what sort of stuff you leanr in a nvq 2 and 3 and what coursework you have to do?

Thanks in advance.

Apparently it isn't age discrimination, it's just the way the givernment fund the courses.

Most of the nurseries have been really apologetic when I have said I am too old then, and said that it's the funding that has the restrictions not the nursery itself.

Captianunderpants - Can I ask what area you are in ?

I'm in Surrey and have got money from the Transformation Fund.

What about work in a school as a ta and train that way. ?
