    how you are finding it really?

    have an interview coming up and i can't really find any information on it and dont want to approach the facilities directly.

    I know there are some difficulties with the Siolta Programme and HSE guidelines, also an increased amount of paper work.

    Hi irishbird,
    Neyai is the national early years access initiative. Earlier this year city/county Childcare committees together with the national voluntary Childcare organizations were invited to submit proposals for funding to carry out 3 year projects linking to the siolta principles. Not all proposals were successful. Some projects target school readiness, others speech and language and others transitions. Look to see what the project in your area involves.
    Siolta is to the best of my knowledge at a bit of a standstill. As it's a voluntary practice framework, it's not really being supported to a large extent. Afaik the formal engagement/quality assurance is under review. The CCCs still have the remit to support services to engage informally with siolta. The nvcos have the remit to provide formal engagement without any additional financial support. Reading between the lines, I cannot see early childhood Ireland to continue with the quality assurance process for siolta. IMHO while it's a lovely framework, practitioners do not grasp the concept of reflective practice.

    Good luck with the interview. Pm me if I can offer any other help.
