This book is closely linked to the new standards required for EYPS, meaning that it is ideal for those students who want a clear, practical overview of what is needed to gain the qualification. The authors spend time on each standard, deconstructing their meaning and considering and advising on the best approaches to evidence them. The Edge Hill based team have drawn on their own teaching experience to offer invaluable guidance for both potential EYPS candidates and those students already on one of the EPYS pathways. The book provides: Practical examples of the standards in personal practice and leadership Examples of completed assessment documentation Evidence to link to experience levels What constitutes evidence and examples of evidence Experiences of others who have gained EYPS Continuing professional development after gaining EYPS The Validation process Examples of quality practice Information on what constitutes sufficient experience of working with the three age ranges
