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.

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:
- Gain extensive knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage;
- Deepen your understanding of children's development;
- Demonstrate your commitment to child care sector to potential employers;
- Understand the latest guidance on children's development, health, safety and welfare.
