Instructor

Victoria Yadav

Hello! I'm Vicki, founder of Primary Steps and an Assistant Head Teacher and EYFS Leader in an Inner London School. I have a vast range of experience in teaching, leadership and governance, including setting up and leading a brand new EYFS provision to achieve an Outstanding OFSTED and win the Nursery World 'Best in Schools' award. I am so happy to be able to share some of my knowledge and experience with you.

Testimonials

“This course was concise and extremely helpful. The content was easy to access and understand, and directed me to other resources to further my understanding of current legislation and best practice documents. The definitions around the language of provision were very helpful in making the distinct language of EYFS classrooms more accessible for teachers outside of that environment. Thank you!”

Author's name

“Thank you for this course! I have been in Early Years for a couple of years and just wanted to reassure myself that I was on the right tracks and doing the best I could for the children in my setting. I found the course to be the perfect length (as I'm sure you more than appreciate, we are all short of time) and had the content to cover the areas I needed reassurance in. I love the links to all the relevant government documents and the ideas for further training. Our new parents meeting is next week and I am definitely going to use the link to the Steps to School as guidance for them. Thank you!”
