NESA Accredited - Staff relationships with families: growing insights and building trust - 2-part online series

May Dates: Tuesday 7th & 14th May

Aug/Sept Dates: Tuesday 27th August and Tuesday 3rd September 

Times: 4.30pm - 6.00pm

A key Principle of the Early Years Learning Framework is ‘Partnerships’. The descriptor states that ‘learning outcomes are most likely to be achieved when early childhood educators work in partnership with families’ (EYLF V2.0 P.14). This workshop explores questions such as:

How do we build the trust needed for true partnerships?

What enables us to ‘see’ and understand from the perspective of families?

How do insights from families help us to support children’s learning, development, and wellbeing?

Completing Staff relationships with families: growing insights and building trust will contribute 3 hours of NSW Education Standards Authority (NESA) Accredited PD in the priority area of Delivery and Assessment of NSW Curriculum/EYLF addressing Standard Descriptor 2.1.2 from the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers towards maintaining Proficient Teacher Accreditation in NSW.
