Mouseketeer Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 That's seems quite realistic I'd say , but I have had parents tell me their child was asked to draw a house with door and windows 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panders Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 found this....no mention of octagons here" http://www.healthvisitors.com/parents/development_two_yrs.htm We used the NFER development milestones but this is lovely, thanks Finleysmaid. Thank you. I wonder if some of these HV's are just pushing on a little to see just how much the child knows, rather than expecting them to be able to do it, show it or say it! But to a parent it isn't explained that way, so parents assume the worst - not at all unusual! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lashes2508 Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 With the new SEND reforms the recommendation has been to do 2 yr checks as soon as , we are allowing 4 weeks for our new starters and requesting from parents a look at any 2 yr check done by HV or previuos setting .

Wildflowers Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 With the new SEND reforms the recommendation has been to do 2 yr checks as soon as I didn't see this in the SEND Code of Practice.

thumperrabbit Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I didn't see this in the SEND Code of Practice. Do you remember where you read it? We were also told this by an Early Year Advisor on a course I attended last term - but of course the only people who have heard about it were those on the course!

thumperrabbit Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 have been told we must! Didn't want to click on 'on like this' 'cause I don't 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 I could be totally wrong here - but I think the NHS side of the changes to 2-3 checks becomes legal in Sept 15 I think? My thinking is that they are recruiting more 'nursery nurse' type people to aid this (I know in our are we have L3 that support health visitors)....Well this is all very good, BUT as most of you lot know - some (and I must stress SOME not all) the level three training is not a comprehensive as it used to be. In some courses it appears child development is not really covered in very much depth. xx 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
