The Golden Key

Early Years SEND CPD for practitioners working as key person

This training program upskills EY practitioners to identify and provide for the needs of all children in their care. It involves identifying individual needs, fostering trust with children and their parents/carers, and daily interaction with children to gain a holistic understanding of their preferences, interests, and development needs.

This training is designed for practitioners (who are not EY SENCO’s) in Early Years PVI and maintained school settings.
