Cheryl_Herrick Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 Hi all Cam someone please confirm whether I should change all my policies to keyperson not keyworker. I have scanned through EYFS and whether I cant see it, but does it have to say keyperson or can it say keyworker. many thanks Cheryl
mundia Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 Keyperson has been in the EYFS since 2008,in the statutory framework. I still work with people who say 'keyworker' but it should be Keyperson. Key person sums up the personal relationship and attachment you make with those key children. 2
Stargrower Posted January 27, 2017 Posted January 27, 2017 Yes, same. I do still hear keyworker now and again - mostly from Social Services.
gillpen Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 We have always used the term Key person. Key worker does sound a lot more impersonal, I think.
Mouseketeer Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 KP's as we're all nuts to do it ;-p We changed from KW sometime ago but still gets referred to as KW's, key persons is harder to say and key people doesn't sound right either. 1
RedDragon Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Yes I changed ours a few years ago to key person.
