This course provides an exciting mixture of both practical work, in a range of child care and learning settings with children up to 8 years, and academic study of children, their learning, development, health and care up to 16 years of age. You will undertake a substantial amount of placement work in schools and nurseries over the 2 year course. Working alongside professionals in these settings, schools and nurseries will give you the experience and understanding of children which makes learning in the classroom come to life. This qualification will give you the knowledge and practical skills of children’s care for progression to employment or higher level education. Work experience and links to the workplace form a central part of the programme. This course will appeal to students who have an interest in children, their development and how they learn. The course will be assessed by internally assessed coursework assessments and an externally assessed written exam.
