About this course

This carefully designed course has been developed to provide professional progression for those who have completed a Level 5 qualification in Early Years. The course further develops students' subject knowledge, understanding and judgement and explores relationships between different aspects of the field of study to examine it in a broader perspective.

The course develops personal effectiveness and the employability of students in line with Government policy to upskill the workforce involved within the Early Years sector. Successful completion of this course will allow you to progress to further study leading to Early Years Teacher Status (EYTS) or Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).

*Please note that the Level 6 Top-Up course leads to a full Bachelors Degree with Honours, however it does not qualify you for the level 6 ratios of 1-13 students. To achieve the level 6 ratios you would need to undertake further study leading to EYTS or QTS.
