About the course

Building on the foundation of early years practice, this apprenticeship prepares individuals to take on more specialised roles in early childhood education. It covers advanced topics in child development, curriculum planning, and assessment techniques. Apprentices learn to design and deliver educational programs that promote children's learning and development, with a focus on individual needs and inclusive practices. The course also emphasises the importance of working collaboratively with families and other professionals to support children's overall well-being. Apprentices will develop the skills necessary to lead educational activities, assess children's progress, and ensure a safe and stimulating learning environment.

Career options

Full-time employment. Upon completion, you can also progress to a higher level apprenticeship or qualification.

Career progression is excellent for apprentices, and over the course of their careers, those with an Apprenticeship earn on average, £100,000 more than those without. (A Cost-Benefit Analysis of Apprenticeships and Other Vocational Qualifications, University of Sheffield, 2007)
