Course structure
On this programme you will spend the majority of your time in your current workplace, with two other placements working with other age ranges including at Key Stage 1. In your workplace and on your placements you will put into practice the skills you learn through your training, with regard to current research and relevant theories.
You will typically attend university for one to two days per month; there are also five induction days in September. This is in addition to placement requirements.
During university taught sessions you will engage with two masters level modules that will focus on:
critical analysis of early years research, theory and policy
reflecting on early years professional practice
leading practice in early years.
These sessions will support you to reflect on and analyse your own practice, as well as develop practice within your setting. The training programme is dynamic, tailored to your professional development needs.
You will be assessed via:
module assessment tasks such as written assignments in response to current research and policy in early years
a formative review to determine your progress in meeting the Early Years Teachers' Standards
a portfolio of evidence which relates to your practice against the Early Years Teachers' Standards
direct observation of your practice.
There are no written examinations on this course.
