skippy Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Hi I just wondered what your titles are if you are part of the management team? Are you simply the manager or something different. TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargrower Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 (edited) I am the manager. I have a deputy manager, then room leaders, then practitioners (official job title is Early Years Practitioner), then assistants for unqualified staff(e.y. assistants).

zigzag Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Sorry I realise my skivvy remark was not at all helpful, just got in from work and it’s been a long day🤪. I used to call myself pre school leader now I call myself pre school manager. I think this changed when the EYFS came in and talked about managers.🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsp Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 It's Manager for me too. Used to be Supervisor but we had a Chair who ran her own business and pointed out that I was responsible for the day to day running of the group therefore should be called Manager.
