Nursery World - Name check

The feature 'First class' (15 February) contains some potentially misleading information, which may inadvertently misrepresent The Chiltern College. The Chiltern College - a charitable trust - has been in operation for 70 years and is well respected in the early years care and education field. It is often referred to as 'The Chiltern' and our students known as 'Chiltern students'. As such they carry with them our reputation nationally and internationally.

Chiltern Training Ltd is a private training company that - as the article states -offers training in NVQs to its trainees/candidates who are working in local early years settings. It has training rooms and offices in Reading, and is not a college campus.

Since Chiltern Training Ltd operates in the same area as that in which The Chiltern College is situated, it may be easy for Nursery World readers to confuse these two very different organisations.
