Crossfingers Stay calm....You will be fine..

Hi, Bagpuss
It is only natural to feel like this and i'm sure you will find that most of us on here have felt like this at one time or another.
You probably don't realise how much you already know, and that you will be able to transfer your knowledge to your course. There is plenty of support on here and at your college. (If you are doing it at college?)
If you get stuck, the members on here are a lovely bunch and very helpful, you will probably find a lot of answers you will need for your forthcoming assignments already on here.

Best of luck and have faith in yourself.

Hi and a very warm welcome.

Best wishes for your nvq start and always feel free to post whenever needed.

Search is a good resource to use .. it's the link at the top right of the page and will help locate Knowledge replys and other related threads. Enjoy Silkysteps and please shout if you get stuck ..

Ruth

I think you will find the fact that you have done your level 3 will be a great help - I found getting my head round the layout and the way the questions are worded the hardest part!!. For level 4 you just need to go a bit deeper into your answers also the new EYFS will be a big part of the level 4
