Early Years T Level Taster Day
This taster day is designed specifically for students studying on T Levels such as 'Education and Early Years', 'Education and Childcare' or 'Early Years Education and Childcare'.
The day is full of active academic learning as your students will take part in two sessions bespoke for Early Years students, looking specifically at childhood over time as well as a session linking brain development, curiosity and learning to the observation cycle.
These talks and activities will then be followed by a question and answer session, and will involve both staff and students currently studying on the Early Childhood Studies course.
Mission and values
Inspired by our Church of England foundation, the University’s mission is to pursue excellence in higher education: transforming individuals, creating knowledge, enriching communities, and building a sustainable future.

the development of the whole person, respecting and nurturing the inherent dignity and potential of each individual
the integration of excellent teaching, research, and knowledge exchange
the power of higher education to enrich individuals, communities, and nations
our friendly, inclusive, and professional community of students and staff, preparing individuals to contribute to a just and sustainable future.
Church of England foundation
With our original campus built upon land that formed the outer precincts of St Augustine’s Abbey (founded in about 602AD), within clear view of Canterbury’s majestic and world-renowned cathedral, Canterbury Christ Church University was literally grounded in the church.
Today our connection to the Church of England and the wider Anglican Communion is as important to our identity as ever.
Now as a University comprising three campuses across Kent and Medway, the meaning of our Church Foundation extends beyond history alone to encompass ethos, values, and practice. It underpins the welcome we offer to all, regardless of faith or belief.
The ethic of service to the public good, which coloured our small beginnings as a teacher training college, continues to inform the diverse syllabus that characterises our contemporary life.
It has also determined the shape of our geographical footprint as we have sought to enhance accessibility to Higher Education for some of Kent’s most disadvantaged communities.
For us, even at a time when the cost of education is rising sharply, while a degree must represent value for money, it cannot be measured in financial terms alone. ‘The truth shall set you free’- so runs our University motto taken from John’s Gospel. Free for what?
Education at its heart concerns learning for life, not just in the sense that its worth endures, but because what enhances life - for oneself, for one’s community, for our fragile earth – is learning’s ultimate quest.
Teaching is an extremely rewarding and challenging career. Our course is designed to provide you with the knowledge, understanding and skills that you need to be an outstanding teacher. We aim to nurture teachers who are passionate about the development of their own and their pupils' learning.
