You’ll have the opportunity to reflect critically on how radical changes have shaped how education is taught today, while analysing methods of effective engagement with young children aged 0-8.

Additionally, you will be provided with opportunities to undertake work experience (subject to availability) in local schools to better understand how theory is put into practice.
