This course enables support staff in educational settings to develop their careers and can form the first two years of a work-based route into teaching. It offers you a flexible programme of academic study to develop your skills and knowledge in early years, primary, secondary, FE or adult education. We have designed varied routes so you can develop professional practice appropriate to your context, role and interests. The intention is that by working together we will help you to achieve your goals. You will spend one day each week in College and a minimum of two days equivalent study in your educational setting. Time spent in an educational setting may be on a paid or voluntary basis and it is your responsibility to arrange this placement. A strong element of work-based learning ensures that your studies directly apply to your practice in education. By the end of the course you will be able to: • Appreciate the variety of roles played by professionals and practitioners in education and become better in your own role • Develop personal skills and a broad understanding of education • Identify your own place and contribution to education • Develop the personal and professional skills to make that contribution • Understand and contribute to current national initiatives. *PLEASE NOTE - THIS PROGRAMME IS UNDERGOING PERIODIC REVIEW/REAPPROVAL IN THE 2019-20 ACADEMIC YEAR FOR DELIVERY FROM 2020-21.
