hi there kate

start on a postive your BTEC National Diploma in Early Years will be a big advantage to doing this course

i did it and completed in 2005 now finding this course very boring at present having completed 401 and half way through 402 as questions constantly repeat themselves

i dug out my BTEC stuff and found the handbook BTEC National Early Years by Yvonne nolan basically follows the layout of the knowledge questions for each unit.

402 you do need to know your policies in the setting inside out and relate to them

my assessor does manage to pass off post with personal discussions and observations but does require the knowledge questions to be answered.

I am going to see if by cross referencing i can eliminate some of 402 questions as basically the same asked in another way

i know some assessor are now setting specific questions ie if you do a essay on legislation you should be able to sign alot of as i have done

good luck anyway and keep in touch

where a happy bunch on here even if we keep banging our heads at times

glad you found us.
