Is the Named person for 2 yr olds their HV?

[MatthewWrightResearch]

I'm just filling in my 2.5yr olds nursery application, there is a section on who her Named Person is.....I have no idea so I'm assuming it's her HV?? I don't even know the HV name's and I've flicked thru her red book a few times.

Yes it'll be the health visitor, then from P1 onwards the headteacher

Thanks! I'm not entirely sure what this named person thing is all about so I'll need to give it a Google later. My HV last saw my DD when she was 16 weeks old.

I would just put "health visitor attached to X GP practice" on the form.

Hate the named person scheme, it's crap.

You really should Google it because, as Luna said, it's crap. IMO.

Seriously you haven't heard of the named person? Have a read of this stuff no2np.org/theatre-group-gets-primary-kids-singing-shanarri-song-sheet/
