I am studying the NVQ level 4 in Education and Childcare and am investigating the effects of the Foundation Stage on play in sessional daycare. I would like to find out the opinions of early years workers who have made the transformation to the Foundation Stage and are now working towards the Early Learning Goals. Does the Foundation Stage allow learning through play in your setting? Have you had to update your qualifications in order to meet QCA/ Ofsted qualification guidelines? Do your staff work together to plan the curriculum?How do you involve parents in day-to-day activities?
