Consequently, the teacher can devise activities rather confidently by taking all these aspects into consideration.

    Early Years teachers have independence in the activities which they plan for nursery classes, they ‘plan and prepare activities and materials’ (nationalcareersservice.direct.gov) such as, colouring or singing/dancing activities and pick what type of resources used on a day to day basis, meaning they are able to make professional decisions about their actions to an extent. However, Early Years teachers are still required to follow the National Curriculum and have managers such as Headteachers therefore, they do not have full independence within what they can teach, which restricts the level of which they are autonomous practitioners. Autonomy comes with accountability and responsibility, although Early Years Teachers have little autonomy, they still have responsibility and can be held to account because they have responsibilities detailed within their job role. For example, they are responsible for safeguarding children in their care. They also have a responsibility to follow the Policies and procedures of the school, which are outlined in their contract of employment and in their professional codes of practice.
