The Distance Learning Early Years course demonstrates how children can feel safe in a supportive environment and where they can develop and thrive.
This course aims to provide you with knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), a statutory framework which has been in place since September 2012, affecting all child care settings in the UK. This is essential if you work within a childcare field, such as childminding, nurseries, out-of-school clubs, creches and schools with nursery facilities with children up to the age of 5.
Using the EYFS as its focus, this course will provide you with the knowledge and understanding that is necessary to provide high-quality child care in accordance with the latest government regulations.
The course learning outcomes are as follows:
You could look for work in childminding or a nursery.
With experience, you could become a key worker for one or more children. You’ll monitor their progress and share information about their development with parents or carers.
As an experienced nursery worker you could specialise in working with children with learning difficulties, physical difficulties or mental health problems.
You could also progress to room leader, senior nursery worker or centre manager.
You could also study towards a higher education qualification in early years or child development. You could then move into management or early years teaching.
You do not need any prior learning knowledge or experience to take this course. It is openly available to anyone who wishes to take part in a highly rewarding home study course, although you would be expected to have a reasonable standard of literacy.
You have the freedom to start the course at any time and continue your studies at your own pace for a period of up to 12 months from initial registration with the full support of your Tutor.
The syllabus consists of six modules which are as follows:
You must successfully complete a series of assessments. Once all assessments and activities have been completed and you have met the required outcomes, you will then be awarded your certificate. The good news is, there is no final exam.
On completion of this course, you will receive an Early Years Level 3 certificate of achievement from Training Qualifications UK (TQUK).
The completion of this course alone does not lead to an Ofqual regulated qualification but may be used as evidence of knowledge and skills towards regulated qualifications in the future. The unit summary can be used as evidence towards your recognition of prior learning if you wish to progress your studies in this sector.
The course itself has been designed by OSC to meet specific learner or employer requirements and Learn Now Distance Learning College are working as a reseller for OSC. The course has been endorsed by TQUK, meaning OSC have undergone external quality checks to ensure that the organisation and the courses they offer are to a high standard. Regular reviews of our courses are carried out as part of the endorsement process.
The course depth and study has been benchmarked at level three against level descriptors published by Ofqual.
