well. this morning i got a lovely letter to say that my county are now having thier budjet lowered and each setting will now have to pay a yearly sub to get training and bursaries!

because we are registered for 42 we will have to pay £300 a year, if you dont register it will be £80 per day of a course, and you wont get nvqs etc paid for.

so i do think that the £300 is fair, but, some settings will struggle with it,
