Play Training
We provide many different training courses for playworkers across B&NES.
Training is open to anyone working with children in B&NES including childminders, pre-school workers and out of school playworkers.
These training courses take place at a variety of locations all of which are accessible with appropriately qualified tutors all of whom have signed up to the Code of Practice for the particular field they tutor in.
Most courses have accompanying Student Packs or booklets which are given to students at the start of the course.
