Working with young children is hugely rewarding and enormous fun. It can also be very challenging, and it’s a fast-paced sector.
We will help you develop the skills, knowledge and qualities needed to deliver a high standard of professional practice in the
workplace.
Our modules have been designed to develop your understanding of professional and inclusive practice, supporting both the child
and the family. Using theory and practical experiences you will explore current research around key topics including
contemporary theories and pedagogical approaches, while building your leadership skills and considering possible careers
across the early childhood sector.
On this course you will learn through practice, in our Early Childhood Resource and Research Room and through our optional
placement or theoretical modules. Placements are optional and individually tailored to enable you to gain experience in a variety
of different types of settings.
Whether you decide to go on placement or not, you will have access to additional volunteering and work experience as well as
the choice to take part in further professional development training opportunities, enrichment trips, research groups and various
early childhood and education events.
Throughout your studies you will be taught by experts in the field of early childhood, using a variety of teaching methods and
interactive technology to promote learning, including group activities, class debates and discussion, lectures and seminar
sessions, as well as independent learning and study expectations. You will receive regular feedback and personal tutorial
