The CACHE Certificate of Professional Development in Working with Children and Young People is a Level 3 qualification on the National Qualifications Framework and accepted by Ofsted.

The Playgroup Network has been supporting local playgroup associations to run this course for the past two years.

It allows for the development of skills and knowledge without requiring candidates to revisit the basics that they learned years ago.
