Program Description

The degree explores the complexity of early education and child development while placing the developing child within the context of their family and society, both in the UK and globally. It allows you to compare and evaluate international and UK-based early childhood education, offering international students the opportunity to compare their home nation’s early years practice with the UK.

Areas you may cover through the course include early child development; early childhood settings; teaching practice; families and communities; early numeracy and literacy; inclusive education and practice; and international perspectives on early childhood education.

• Benefit from its strong focus on employability, with placements in settings across the age range (birth-7) as well as opportunities for voluntary experience
• Learn with a highly experienced, research-active academic team
• Study at a University with over 10 years’ experience delivering degree courses in early years or early childhood education
• Many of our alumni have gone on to qualify as teachers in the UK primary sector or work as leaders in the early years sector
• If you are an international student, we offer a transition unit before the start of the course that familiarises you with UK early years education
• You can enter the course at Level 5, with two years’ subsequent full-time study, or at Level 6, with one year of study. The level of entry depends on your previous qualifications
