Hi,

I am also new to the site. I have been using the page for useful hints and tips as I have only just started my level 3 qualification and working at my local pre school. I have recently completed my 1st unit, but couldnt believe there is another 15 more to go! quite scary.
I have signed up to this website because it is so good to see that everyone is going through the same thing as me. I'm the youngest in my setting and the support i recieve is brilliant. I have been on so many courses to go with this qualification so far and its hurting my brain, but I can't wait when I recieve the certificate. but got so long to go.

hope everyone is enjoying their course..

:)

Hi Glad
you are enjoying your course and your role within your setting, a warm welcome to you.
If you are completing the level 3 diploma not sure whether i should say this or not but there are more units, i think that they are all the units that you have to do but you have optional units to do by the end of the course you must have completed 65 credits, i had 4 more additional units to complete some tutors will let you choose your optional units and some tutors choose them for you, i was allowed to choose my own so that i could tie in my work role as a SENCO.

All silkysteps members are brilliant at giving advice, guidance and support when you need it. Good luck

hi i am also on this question if any1 could give me any ideas on how to start it i would appreciate this as i don't know where to start

Hi guys - is this course not personal development? Create a table detailing each learning objective, how you will go about meeting the objective- research, observation, etc. a date for when you will achieve it or if you have already when and any observations you have made about the learning i.e successes/challenges and anything you would like to develop in the future.
hope this helps get you started or at least gives you some ideas.

Thanx Mrs Noah, I get that the bits I'm struggling on are the ' describe the duties and responsibilities of own work role' and 'demonstrate how to work with others to agree own personal development', I've just emailed my tutor so hopefully will hear something back from him to point me in the right direction xx

Hi Emma-Kay - what is your role within the setting - what kind of support do you provide- might be able to help a bit more.
