Session Description
Introduction
We recommend that early years settings ensure their staff are recording effectively. This session was developed by one of our trainers when it was found that many education staff had never received any training on recording effectively, which was resulting in avoidable mistakes and legal cases. This session ensures there is a clear understanding of the importance of effective record keeping and that staff and organisations are aware of their responsibility in relation to recording.
Attendees
This training is suitable for the following members of staff:
- Those in direct contact with children and families, regardless of the organisation
- All early years staff required to keep records
- Those supervising staff
Learning outcomes:
By the end of the training, participants will be able to:
- Develop new skills/methods for recording
- Describe the importance of effective record keeping and safe practice
- Explore the potential consequences of poor practice
- Gain an understanding of and develop good practice
- Detail the protocols and procedures to be followed regarding the safe storage of records
Please note this session is free for schools with our Early Years bolt-on
