VALUABLE NEW FEATURES

Help parents understand key details

To ensure that families grasp the essential aspects of your policies, I have introduced a new 'Key Points' section at the end of many of the longer policies. These lay out the main parts of the policies that you absolutely need parents to understand.

Additional information about how to run your setting on a Best Practice basis

In addition to the new 'Key Points' section there is also a new 'Notes for the Childminder' section. This section contains lots more information about some of the longer policies, such as the legal basis for some of the procedures. This information will help you understand why certain pieces of information have been included and the reasoning behind some of the procedures described. Even if you decide that you do not want policies other than those you have to have this enables you to adjust the policies so they are tailored to your own setting and way of doing things.

The information in the pack also serves as a valuable training guide, empowering you to embrace a Best Practice approach to every aspect of your setting. Whether you're a pre-reg or recently registered childminder, or simply seeking to refresh and improve your practices, this guidance offers sensible advice and valuable information to support you.
