skippy Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Hi Please can anyone tell me where I can find info re qualifications framework? I wondered where an EYP is in relation to a teacher. Is an NQT the same level as an EYP? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Skippy both EYPS and QTS are Level 6, however an EYP cannot teach in a mainstream school. So whilst they are seen to be equal in terms of the Level, they are not equivalent across the whole sector. Mind you, I'm always surprised to see EYPS on the 'qualifications' database when it is always stressed that it is a status, and not a qualification in itself. Not sure why you're asking, but I hope that helps. You can check it out on the qualifications finder database here:- https://www.education.gov.uk/eypqd/qualification-search 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippy Posted January 12, 2013 Author Share Posted January 12, 2013 Thanks Maz, we had been having discussions and my thinking was your description. Have you heard anything about training opportunities for us people with EYPS to train to gain QTS as a recent recommendation from the Nutbrown review 2012?
