Absolutely... I tell parents I have a teaching degree, an NVQ3 in early years, NCMA quality first and that I'm doing a foundation degree...
I tell them that I will be following whatever Govt curriculum is current with their child...
I explain all about observing, planning, assessing... I go through what I do every day and how children play and how I make learning fun...
They are not interested... a number of parents have actually said, over the years, 'but they do all that at school' or 'why do you bother?'
I sent a 3 year old home with a 50+ page, fully referenced to Birth to 3 matters, full of photographs and relevant notes, learning and development memories diary not long ago on her last day... I have never heard from the family since. It nearly reduced me to tears!
Ah well, at least I know I'm doing it the very best I possibly can
