'Ofsted inspectors are not looking for files full of assessment evidence on individual children. You don’t need to photograph a child with a group of 5 bricks to prove that you have introduced children to the number 5.' https://t.co/icfXOx5i6o

We’ve just finished our final #NPQSL session of our 19-21 cohort. It’s been an emotional & incredible journey - so of course we had to send love through little care packages to each participant. Congratulations! #arklearning #FridayMotivation

Ark Start Oval is becoming an indoor/outdoor shoes setting from Monday! Giving my cat slippers a bit of a makeover in preparation! (Perfectly on theme for our new pet shop role play)

‘Some children settle quickly and do not need, or want, their parents around. They put their emotions into doing things and playing.

Why interfere with that?’
