Our T-Level in Education & Early Years gives students the knowledge, skills and practical experience needed to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people.
Students will explore child development, safeguarding, health and wellbeing, behaviour, equality and diversity, and special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), while learning how to support children’s education and development from birth through to age 19.
A major part of the course is learning through experience. Students will complete extensive industry placements within local primary schools and education settings, putting their classroom knowledge into practice and developing confidence working with children and education professionals.
Throughout the course, students will develop essential skills in communication, teamwork, observation, assessment, problem-solving and professionalism, while learning how to work effectively with parents, carers and other professionals.
The course provides an excellent foundation for progression into early years, primary education, teaching, childcare and wider education support roles, as well as apprenticeships, university and further professional training.
