Guest Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Hi, Can someone out there clarify something for me. I am the mananger of a day nursery, I have a deputy, a good one, but the owners wants to hire a "secretary"( basically an assistant for the office) not childcare qualified, but they want them to be the named person in charge when im not there. As I see it the named person should be childcare qualified, but they say not. Advise please.Ive send them the bit from the standards in the EYFS framework which says the manager has to level 3 or above but it doesnt say named person in charge.who as they say isnt the manager.

Greenfinch Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Hi When you are there, you are the named PIC If you are not there,the named PIC is your deputy (I am assuming deputy has Level 3) Why do they want admin help to be more than that?Would need to have childcare qualifications to be named person in charge.

Guest Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Hi, I know im the PIC when im there, and my deputy is PIC when im not there, but the owners dont want my deputy to be PIC when im not there and they want my assisant in the office to be PIC in my absence, but I said they cant be as they havent got any childcare qualifications.

Greenfinch Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 Hi,yes,I agree with you . It seems like the owners have an issue/agenda with your deputy? I can't see why else they are trying to suggest this.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
