Hello Lovely Educators. I have recently been appointed the role of Educational leader at my service.
I have only been in the field for two years, the second year being room leader for the first time. I know i will be getting a lot of help and support from my Centre Manager and other Educators, but I still feel a little bit unsure. I'm still learning when it comes to writing, programming and planning and im confused as to how im meant to help others, when i need help too. My manager says that i was the only suitable candidate for the role.
I feel great knowing people have faith in me, but i still get the feeling its going to be a disaster. Any advice is much appreciated.
Thank-you

You can take this as an opportunity that others don't usually get being so new. There is lots of information online. I've attached the acecqa and early childhood australia links.
