Beginnings

– How I view my practice at the start of my current training –

This practitioner has not chosen to share this information at this time.

What I enjoy about working with young children

I love supporting practitioners to understand the significance of their role and the opportunities they have to make a difference with young children.

How would I describe my role, in a nutshell

I am a leader of learning with the local authority with a focus on supporting learners whose home language is not English. I have lots of experience supporting positive interactions as a Video Enhanced Reflective Practice Trainer.

When and how MY PRACTICE is most child-centred

As a leader of learning my role involves supporting change at organisational levels and the most important part of this is meeting practitioners where they are and supporting them to lead their own learning journey.

The ways and extent to which my setting's ENVIRONMENT, MATERIALS and PROCEDURES are child-centred

The child is at the centre of every interaction and the practitioner follows the child's lead and scaffolds all of their learning.

How Froebel/Froebelian thinking informs or inspires my practice today (if at all)

Froebelian thinking is so fundamental to excellent childhood practice today and its time to slow down and think.

How an awareness of social justice impacts on my practice
