Course Details - Modules
We offer a route into higher education for practising early years workers. Over a two-year period a substantial amount of your learning will take place in your workplace through the planned and supported tasks and projects we will set you. You will undertake study in areas such as child development, communication, language and literacy, inclusion, health, and management issues in early years. You will take a series of modules during regular classes at college. In this way, you gain access to the theory and debate while remaining rooted in your everyday work with young children.
