Guest Greenhouse Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Hello you wonderful people I am looking for a little advice. I am currently working in FS and have been for the past 10 years. I enjoy it, but I am feeling a bit jaded and I would really like something to get my brain working again. I cant afford to take on a second degree course but there must be something out there, I just don't knowwhere to look. I am really interested in literacy and communication, but anything really. Sorry if this has any mistakes in, my computer has just died and I am writing this on my phone (with rubbish eyesight) All suggestions greatly received Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmum Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I did EYPS after my degree but am not sure what the future is now it's EYT instead. I would love to do a Masters but can't afford it - I miss the studying!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargrower Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 My local authority offer Elklan for £100 (20 hour course I think) My deputy did it and said it was interesting and she's able to put some of it into practice but it definitely wasn't challenging academically.

bubblejack Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Has anyone heard of the company Pbs. They are offering a new Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for the Children and Young People's Workforce (Early Years), its open for registration on 1 April. It appears to be online with an assessor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrawberyTwirl Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I did the Elklan course, it was valuable and fits with your interests... wish I had the time to implement it properly!! (LA funded my course 20 weeks) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Greenhouse Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Hello Thank you all for your suggestions The Elklan courses look great but sadly not available in my area, will have a search for pbs. Maybe its time for a change of job instead, just need a little inspiration! Thanks all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
