The Scottish Independent Nurseries Association (SINA) has received approval to provide training for the new Level 4 Scottish Vocational Qualification in early years and education. The qualification is jointly awarded by the SQA and the Council for Awards in Children's Care and Education (CACHE).
Alice Sharp, early years executive for SINA, said that 25 students have enrolled on the SVQ so far and that a further 25 are lined up to start the course.
Ms Sharp said, 'The nice thing is that they come from all over Scotland from the private and voluntary sectors, including family-care centres and community-funded projects.'
