On this degree you will gain knowledge, insight and understanding of fundamental issues to do with learning in the Early Years. Alongside studying early social, emotional and cognitive development in children aged 0-7, you will be supported through your academic studies with a bespoke academic English module provided by professionals from the Centre for International English.On the course you will develop your own critical thinking skills, theoretical knowledge and what is considered best practice in early years learning and teaching. Academic research is a core element of the degree, therefore you will be supported as you increase your knowledge of critical enquiry and the importance of ethical approaches to discovery. The course is delivered by experienced lecturers, already published in the field of education and the Early Years.During the average week, students will be given opportunities to develop their ability to work independently and collaboratively, through which they will build valuable graduate skills like problem solving, critical thinking, creativity and effective communication. Our Early Years Education top up course would be the perfect option for you if you have a keen interest in current pedagogical research into Early Years Education and are interested in working with young children.
