Reviews

“I wish I had this when I started in Reception last year, or had you to speak to so as to gain a really good overview of what an adults role looks like in Reception. I feel I wouldn't have been as overwhelmed with this at the start of my EYFS journey! I appreciated all the links to paperwork as well as the suggested reading lists and resources. The course has helped me to spot what I now need to implement and given me ideas about how to support my staff who are new to early years. Thank you for putting this on, I loved the informal and friendly nature of the sessions. Also the lengths weren't overwhelming as you find in other similar courses. I would absolutely recommend it to any new to reception teacher, with the idea of returning to it regularly throughout the year.”

“What a fantastic little course. After 9 years of working within KS2, as both a HLTA and NQT, I am moving into Early Years. Although I requested Early Years, I was very anxious about how different it is in comparision to KS2 and wanted to be able to stand on my own two feet, rather than relying on my partner teacher for help. Your course has help me to realise that I needn't be so worried and I'm looking forward to getting started with my new class in September. Thank you for making a course that was simple, but equally informative.”

“Some great points made and I found it very helpful. I finished my EY Teacher training last year and my placement in a school was only for 6 weeks. I was panicking, feeling like I don't know enough. I recently got a job as a Reception teacher, and this course has been very reassuring. I can do this! Thank you!”

“This was really useful! I started teaching Reception this year and I have never had training on teaching EYFS so this was a really useful course to make sure I'm going in the right direction. ”
