Update on NOS review published

The UK Playwork NOS Consortium has published a new information sheet that gives an update on the progress of the National Occupational Standards (NOS) on Playwork review. The information sheet (number 3) reports on activities and key achievements made since January 2025. These include the establishment of expert groups, the development of a functional map and the review and drafting of NOS. The information sheet aims to ensure the playwork sector is kept well informed, consulted and engaged throughout the NOS review process.

The UK Playwork NOS Consortium comprises Play Wales, Play Scotland, PlayBoard NI, Play England and The Playwork Foundation.

It is expected that the final NOS will be published to the UK Standards in Autumn 2025.
