WWO training is fun and interactive and mirrors the Working With Others process, so that a significant part of the understanding comes from your participation. Our programme gives all Childminders and Early Years professionals the opportunity to:

• Learn a range of different practical activities for young children that will enhance their trust, communication and problem solving skills
• Build your own confidence and self-esteem
• Gain confidence in strategies for enabling all children to be comfortable with others and develop positive relationships with their peers
• Explore how you can be a facilitator of learning between children
• Review and enrich the emotional and physical environment for your children
• Plan, structure and support opportunities for co-operative and collaborative learning in your setting as part of a team
• Devise a personal action plan for moving forwards and next steps for developing your own practice.

Types of Courses

There are several, readily accessible and affordable ways in which you can become familiar with and introduce and embed WWO practices into your work.

All of our course work is integrated, which means that you have a number of entry points to the WWO programme and, for larger organisations, these can be tailored to meet the needs and timetable of your Early Years setting.
