Introduction
Classroom taught sessions to provide the underpinning knowledge of the qualification. This is supported by a Virtual Nursery where students can practice work-based skills in a non-threatening environment. Work placement provides students with the opportunity to be part of a real environment, putting their knowledge into practice and further developing skills.
Your course will involve two days of work placement each week. This placement will provide you with experience in a variety of different settings throughout the year. You will also study the following units: An introduction to working with children; Development from conception to age 16 years; Supporting children; Keeping children safe; Principles underpinning the role of the practitioner working with children; Promoting a healthy environment for children; Play and learning in children’s education; Caring for children; Development of professional skills with children’s education Maths and English form part of this course and will be assessed at the relevant levels.
Classroom sessions are assessed using discussions, questioning, and tasks to complete a portfolio. Work placement is prepared for during classroom activities and assessed by observation by an assigned College Assessor. Students must be competent in both areas.
