Designed specifically for people who want to work with children from ages 0-7 this Level 3 course develops your understanding of child development, reflective practice, health and wellbeing and working with parents and other professionals. Successful completion of this course grants you a 'license to practice' as an Early Years Educator.
You need five GCSEs at grade 9-4 (A*-C) including either English Language or maths at grade 4 with a minimum grade 3 for the other subject. To work with children you will need a full DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check and a good level of Maths and English. If you don’t have a grade 4 or above when you leave school we’ll build it into your timetable.
Assessment will be on-going through a combination of projects, involving cross college teams, displays and group work. If you study maths and English there are exams for these subjects. There are also two controlled assessments.
