More information about this Course


Introduction

Do you get on well with young children? Do you find that young people gravitate towards you? Perhaps, you’ve already worked in the world of childcare by babysitting. If so, this course is the perfect stepping stone into your dream job.

Studying both in the classroom and on placement, you’ll achieve a secure understanding of the knowledge and skills you need to work directly with children and young people in school environments.

Our expectations of you are high because this is a challenging industry that demands high standards.

You’ll be expected to organise your workload and develop both research and study skills over the duration of the course.

During the course, you’ll study:

  • Child and Young Person Development
  • Safeguarding the Wellbeing of Children and Young People
  • Communication and Professional Relationships With Children and Young People
  • Schools as Organisations
  • Supporting Learning Activities
  • Positive Behaviour in Children and Young People
  • Professional Relationships With Children and Young People


Entry Requirements

You’ll need five GCSEs including Maths and English Language at least level four (minimum grade C or equivalent).

You’ll also need two good references (one must be from an employer or a recent school/college report).

It is really important for you to have a criminal records check called an enhanced DBS check before you can go on your work placement.

So, you need to be aware that if you’ve received a caution, reprimand, or conviction, it may mean we can’t enrol you on the course and you won’t be able to get a job in the care and childcare sectors.



Assessment and Progression

Assessment: You will be assessed by direct observation in the workplace, portfolio of evidence, and written tasks.

Progression: If you pass, you’ll be able to progress to a relevant level four in higher education or into a job in an education setting.



Fees
Fees listed are for those aged 19 years and over only. Fees are subject to change. Support for fees may be available, such as fee remission or the Advanced Learner Loan.
