WHY CHOOSE THIS COURSE

This is ideal if you have completed an Intermediate Apprenticeship or Childcare Level 2 and would like to work with children aged 0-5 (with a working knowledge of 5-7 year olds).
It covers the skills required by an Early Years Educator and you will study topics such as partnership working, providing effective teaching and implementing the Early Years Foundation stage.
This will prepare you to work in childcare roles such as Early Years Practitioner and Room Leader. Successful completion of this qualification will help you to secure work and potentially progress in to a management role.
