Presentación

Studying Early Childhood Studies enables you to gain practitioner recognition if you do not already hold a practical qualification relating to the field of early childhood. There is also the opportunity to study abroad at stage two through the Erasmus programme.
Explore how children develop
You’ll develop your understanding of early childhood from birth to eight years, exploring how children develop, learn, and think. You’ll explore the importance of identifying and meeting children’s needs, and consider the challenges and opportunities in children’s services, looking at childhood from a range of perspectives. We’ll encourage you to use your own experiences to enhance your knowledge and develop your understanding of early childhood.
Exciting placements
To make sure that you´re ready to work in early years when you graduate, you´ll undertake a placement for two days each week. This will develop your observational reflective skills, as well as your practical knowledge of different settings.

Requisitos

Our entry requirements are usually 260 UCAS points, of which at least 220 will be from your core A2s (full A levels) or equivalent qualifications such as BTEC Diploma, International Baccalaureate, Scottish Highers etc.
We´ll accept up to 40 points towards the total from level 3 qualifications such as AS levels (where those AS levels are not taken on to A2 level), the Extended Project or Music qualifications.
We don´t accept points from Key Skills Level 3. If you have any questions about what is or isn´t accepted, please contact our Admissions team.
We also accept the Access to HE Diploma.
Your points at level 3 will be in addition to 5 GCSEs at grade C or above (including maths and English) or equivalent Level 2 qualifications.
A Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) is required at the point of accepting a place at the University. The Disclosure and Barring Service was established when the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) merged in 2012 and will now provide the criminal records checking service for this programme.
The UCAS tariff points are a guide - we´ll also consider all the information that you´ve included in your application. We´ll also want to see that you´re enthusiastic and motivated to take this course and that you have the potential to benefit from coming to university.
