Overview
The FD
programme is designed to support the integration of theory and practice and
develop skills and attributes needed to work with children, young people and
adults.
Consideration
has been given to the fact that Early Years students and practitioners work in a
variety of employment situations and an increasingly wide age range. It is
therefore essential that learning activities are responsive to the student
profile, key employment demands, current developments in the sector and needs of
the wider community through creating businesses and employment.
Therefore,
experiential learning is embedded throughout the programme and draws on
professional practice, access to an early years setting is therefore
essential.
The PT
programme is six hours of contact time per week, you are also expected to
complete self-directed study on a weekly basis to extend your subject
knowledge.
