I am trying to understand the new requirements for first aid training in the Eyfs September 2025. It says new staff should complete First Aid with 3 months of starting work to be counted in ratio. Does this mean they CANNOT be counted in ratio until they have completed first aid course. In another area in the statutory guidlines it states at least one member of staff should hold a first aid certifacate on site at all times. Does this mean that every member of staff has to have first aid training to be counted in ratio? I have a new member of staff starting next week and have her booked for first aid training in October but i was counting her in our ratio (not sure if i can now?)

We have unfortunately been given notice to leave the premises we run our nursery from. The date they have given us is the last day of term 20th December. ( bang goes my Christmas!) In the 3 weeks of receiving the notice I have found another property to rent( almost double the rent we were paying😩) Now the issue I have is we have to move all our equipment out on the last day of term as the children will still be there on that day! I will be calling Ofsted to explain that we will be having a change of address ( different postcode same borough) and then complete whatever forms I need too. Is it going to be a whole new registration and How long are Ofsted currently taking to inspect premises to open as a nursery? Or is it different for a change of address ( praying is easier😬) Do you have to have all equipment/furniture set up for when they come? If so I don’t know how I could possibly do this if I still need to continue running from the premises I’m still at! I’m hoping that some of the children will move to the new premises so would need to close 20th December and open new nursery at the beginning of January 2025. could I show them photos of all my equipment to get the new registration or do I have to be fully set up🧐.
