  1. Making it Happen The process to achieve the franchise

  2. Step one: getting permission • We were approached by Home Start • We needed to agree a franchise • Paper to ‘Partnership, Planning and Advisory Group’ they meet twice a year’ • Proposal agreed in principle • UCLan Quality Unit undertakes an organisational visit ‘institutional audt’ • Quality Unit agrees we are able to go ahead to validation. Home Start becomes a partner!

  3. Step two: validation of awards • We look at the current PTLLS and CTLLS awards and see what we can use as a base line • We check the programme that already exists in Home-Start (no babies and bathwater!) • We collectively prepare the following documentation

  4. Step three: paperwork • We create modules for the PTLLS (20 credits) and CTLLS (40 credit awards) • We explore assessment strategies • We write SOW based on current provision and new programme • We produce UCLan and Home-Start handbooks and supporting documents • We produce all of the assessment documents needed for the programme

  5. Step four: the validation event • We have a selection of Home Start Staff and UCLan staff • We invite a really good external examiner who knows the sector very well • We have an interesting discussion and achieve success

  6. A comment from the external • The team is always in motion. It is innovative and forward looking as illustrated for example by its validation last year of the PTLLS & CTLLS for training of staff within Home Start, a national charity, which has now received in association with the University of Central Lancashire, an SVUK Quality Mark. As External Examiner I have learned much and have felt privileged to be part of this valuable enterprise.

  7. Good practice • Good Practice • The panel cited the following areas of good practice: • Co-operation of UCLan and Home-Start UK staff; • Rigorous moderation process; • Foresighted development, a reflective practice being carried into another domain; • Getting trainees to reflect on practice and ways of assessment; • Forward planning taken place before the event; • Innovated nature of the programme is excellent.

  8. Step five: Endorsement with SVUK • This was the easy bit • We had already done the mapping for our other awards • We had all of the documentation • We sent it in • We had a day out in Leeds • We were told of our success

  9. We celebrated • Invited to SVUK in Leeds for a photo shoot • We were all very proud • 100 trainees last year and the feedback is great • We have learnt a lot form the challenges we have faced

  10. Step six: we get on with it • Subject specialist mentors in Home-Start are trained • Generic observers are trained • The programmes take place • Home-start becomes part of our partnership • We are all learning from each other • I would do it again!
