PurpleBee takes off nationwide

June 24, 2019

PurpleBee announce the launch of their award-winning online leadership, mentoring and PANCo training programmes for Early Years Professionals.

Following on from the successful pilot of PurpleBee online leadership and mentoring training programmes across the east of England, PurpleBee are now launching their award-wining courses to Early Years settings nationwide.

Each of the PurpleBee ILM Level 3 and CACHE Level 4 accredited and CPD courses have been specifically designed by experienced Early Years professionals to meet and exceed Ofsted’s expectations around the health and wellbeing of children and families.

In response to Ofsted’s raised expectations regarding health and wellbeing PurpleBee offers the gold standard in training for the nationally-recognised role of PANCo (Physical Activity and Nutrition Co-ordinator).

A PANCo is a champion for change; having a PANCo in your setting gives you the in-house expertise to get a headstart on your health and wellbeing initiatives and build a reputation for being an employer that cares about the health and wellbeing of their team, children and families.

PurpleBee online learning provides busy Early Years Professionals with a cost-effective and flexible way to support their development and apply practical learning to their settings.

Early Years Professionals who enrol on to a PurpleBee course can expect to be proactive – improving their own practice, sharing new knowledge and skills and finding ways to enable others to learn and grow.

Nicole, Deputy Manager, The Old School House. ‘The PurpleBee course was extremely easy to use and is accessible to all. I completed the programme on my phone and found I could flip between my work book and browser easily. I genuinely found the content interesting, and a brilliant balance between, audio, visual and interaction catering for all learning types. I would use PurpleBee Learning again, and thoroughly enjoyed this course finding it extremely relatable in my role’

PurpleBee CEO, Linda Baston-Pitt explains, ‘continued, individual development, positive organisational change and workplace wellbeing are all interlinked. By investing in an organisation that actively supports, nurtures and cultivates strong teams and leaders Early Years employers will naturally create an environment in which staff are happy and children thrive’.

The PurpleBee Training team is a group of Early Years professionals, experts and academics who have come together to bring you the latest and best in Early Years practice. Key members of the team have worked in an award-winning nursery, so their training is rooted in the real world of Early Years childcare and education.
