Hello everyone!!!!!
Well, I didn't realise how long it has been since I last wrote a blog....I had no idea that it had been over a month. So....I'm back.
Life has been pretty hectic...school has been utterly manic.
I've been on courses and had meetings galore.
I'm taking my LDSS NVQ Level 4 too....which is an enormous commitment. There are 11 Units with a fair amount of work in each.
Its quite complicated but the work is made up of assignments, observations, written work, mainly tables and reviews, Professional Discussions, Peer Discussions, Knowledge Questions, Witness Testimonies, an ongoing Reflective Diary and Case Studies.
Last week I completed 2 of those Units....and have been told that I passed them, so I'm getting there.
The one thing I really dread is to have to do a Professional Discussion. Its me and the Assessor in a room with a voice recorder. He asked me a succession of questions, and you have to do your best to answer them, including evidence of case studies, covering the criteria that has to be covered in order to pass the P.D. It's not my favourite part at all.
I had one last Friday and passed it, and I have another on Wednesday this week, and really just want to get it over with. Its a real biggy. This PD covers 3 units, and there's something like 30 questions to answer.
I have an assignment to do over the holiday and a couple of smaller pieces of work, then hopefully....fingers crossed I'll have completed another 4 Units.
I'll keep you posted!!!!
