EYFS 2012 HAS ARRIVED!

BE THE FIRST TO BE ABSOLUTELY READY TO DELIVER THE NEW EYFS!

I am being commissioned by nurseries, schools and independent schools to run in-house workshops that specifically look at how to successfully implement the new EYFS.
The INSETs are taking place in schools in London, Brighton and the South East but Crayongeneration can work in other areas.
As always, the INSETs will be very practical and give useful examples for all staff.

LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED.  PLEASE MAKE CONTACT, especially if you would like find out more about all the new changes and how they will affect you.

Margaret.
