PROGRAMMING TIME !
Re: PROGRAMMING TIME !
Hi Bec,
Interestingly enough, in the Childrens Services Award (2010) it states that any employee responsible for the implementation of the program for a group or individual child Is entitled to a minimum of 2 hrs a week of non contact time to complete programming requirements.
This issue has already been discussed in the forum before, check out the link below for more info:

Hopefully you can use this info to your advantage and get some time to complete paperwork during the week!
Cheers

Re: PROGRAMMING TIME !
Hi Sonia,
I think anyone involved in programming and planning should be allocated sufficient programming time. Do you share this responsibility with the room leader as well? Since both of you work on the programming together than you should be allowed at least one hour each during the week of off the floor time. In the regs it states that whoever is involved in the programming should have a minimum of 2 hrs each week of programming time but since you both share it, maybe one hour each is sufficient. This is my opinion anyway... Maybe you could alternate programming time each week?
Cheers

Re: PROGRAMMING TIME !
You guys are lucky to get paid programming times. 
That is one of the downfalls of FDC. We have to do it in our own time.

Other assistants in the room also have similar amount of children’s portfolio to do. I would like to ask how many hour/s of programming time we are entitle on each week?
Thank you!
