Weymouth Dorset, United Kingdom Dorset Council Full time

Dorset Council are passionate about all children being able to access a high-quality early education that promotes high standards, is appropriate to their needs, and helps them to achieve their best possible outcomes
We want our children to have the best possible start in life, with a specific focus from pre-conception to being ready for the transition to school.
This will be a mix of registered childminders, wraparound providers, and ‘group’ provision e.g. pre-schools and nurseries.
This role will support early years settings to meet the needs of children through the requirements of the (EYFS) statutory framework. We have a statutory duty to provide information, advice, and training to early years practitioners and those who wish to register as a childcare provider.
The Advisor will work with setting leaders to review the approach to delivering the curriculum for all children. This will include children who are considered to be vulnerable and at risk of achieving their full potential. This might include children who:
•have English as an additional language
•experience poverty, poor housing, and access to other activities
•in receipt of Early Years Pupil Premium or 2-year-old funding
•have additional needs and, or a disability
understand their responsibilities to children with SEN and the setting’s approach to identifying and meeting SEN
•The role will support the setting to evaluate their own provision, identifying actions and improvements in order to be judged ‘Good or Outstanding’ in an Ofsted inspection.
Information, advice, and training will be delivered to settings in a variety of ways including through role modelling, planning, and delivering activities alongside practitioners, guiding setting staff in delivery of activities to support children’s development. By September 2025, working parents of a child under five will be entitled to 30 hours of funded childcare per week. Advisors will also work with colleagues and settings to support the expansion of wraparound provision (before and after school) for primary school children to be able to access in their local area.
