Nursery World - Childcare apprenticeships panel has just one PVI representative

Members of the expert panel which will be vetting new early years apprenticeships have been announced.

The Childcare and Education panel will soon be scrutinising the new Level 3 apprenticeship standard, which was submitted in October.

The panel of eight has just one PVI early years representative, Dandelion Education, which won Nursery Of The Year in Nursery World’s recent awards.

The remaining five panel members are from schools, some of which have nurseries, including independent school King’s College, and universities which offer early years degrees.

The panel, which comes under the remit of the Institute of Apprenticeships, will be chaired by Sir Nick Weller, CEO of the Dixons Academies Trust, Bradford, which runs eight secondary and primary schools in Bradford.
