we havent been told, but we dont really "learn" about the curriculum as such as there is a wide range on people on the course. from us (preschool) right up to year 6 lsa's. also we have 1 childminder, and 2 childminder coordinators and also one health visitor coordinator. so a real mix on our course, which is fab and so interesting.
Although i will say that they do seem to be right up there with knowledge and we have chatted about it before now.
we are expected to reference our own curriculums and standards docs in our course work as necessary.

sorry not much help really,
(thinking i might do an overview of the course so far.... later on what do you think? useful?)
