Guest Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hello all, I have been invited for an early years interview where I have to do a short presentation on my visualization of "Outstanding Early Years Provision". I am really excited about this and have lots of ideas but was wondering what other people's advice might be. Do you think it is a good idea to take photographs of work/children to exemplify ideas? What would you include in your presentation? Any help or advice greatly appreciated :-) Glittery xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belle06 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I would use pictures but not of the children. I would also look at the ofsted outstanding area to look at the sort of areas that are getting people outstanding. I would also include a action plan showing what you would like to see to show an outstanding early years provision and would put in how thiscould be achieved by who and cost and time implications this would then show that you are aware of the realities involved. Hope this helps a little I am sure others will be along soon with some good advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Thank you very much. An action plan sounds like an excellent idea! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Hi glittery and welcome! Your idea to illustrate what you are talking about with photos sounds like a good one, especially if they are from your own provision elsewhere. Be careful in an action plan that you are not running down the provision looking for the employee! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Susan - I will take ideas from the action plan from what was suggested by the Head when I went for a walkround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreamay Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) it does state your VIZUALISATION so i would do an action plan based on what you think outstanding practice is. In cheshire we use a self evalaution toolkit 'moving on' to measure quality. Having jsut completed an assignment on my principles and how we measure quality i would mention KEEP,the principles in practice cards in EYFS and any other your LA use.OMG was just going to do word count then!!! Need a break!!! Edited March 16, 2008 by Andreamay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hali Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 well i would state what was very good and expand on those areas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
