Sarah_Church Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Hi, We are making contingency plans for potential future closures. One of the things we'd like access to is free podcasts and webinars. I know the foundation stage forum have them, I've got YouTube on my list as well as childcare.co.uk. Could anyone let me know where else these things could be accessed? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I was thinking the same. Kinda thinking I might offer unpaid- and they can do nothing work related, or fully paid but must access 'x' amount of online training each week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blondie Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 not sure but if you have insurance through psla they do have training I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnyday Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 If your insurance is through Morton Michel they offer free training via 'flick' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 I feel I have to add- I'm only talking about 1 or 2 a week, not for all the normal working hours! I shall check out psla I aways forget about them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenTapestrySupport Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Podcasts are a great way to get some CPD (thank you for mentioning the FSF one already!) Early Education have a couple: https://www.early-education.org.uk/podcasts Another nice one (and very topical) can be heard here: https://evidencebased.education/podcast-archive/ Great thing about podcasts is that you can get staff to listen to them and then it can be covered by a discussion after. If you use Tapestry, you could the use Reflections as an area to discuss the podcast. I believe hyperlinks are being added to certain areas on Tapestry which will make linking to specific podcasts a lot easier. If you have any other podcast suggestions, I'd love to hear them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I've had a look this afternoon I did the speech, language and communication one. Didn't take very long, but there were a few basic reminders of good practice.
