T Level Foundation Year in Early Years

The T Level Foundation Programme provides a high-quality route onto T Levels for students who would benefit from the additional study time and preparation that it will give them before they start their T Level.

The Level 2 Certificate in Introducing Caring for Children and Young People will give learners a basic understanding of childcare and education, parenting and babysitting. It will also help them to make an informed choice about working with children and young people

4 GCSE's at Grade 3 or above (including maths and English Language).

During this foundation year, you will develop the skills, knowledge and understanding needed to start your T level, as well as looking at the core principles of Education & Childcare.

It will be assessed by your Tutor or Assessor using a range of methods. This could include tasks, course work or methods such as oral questioning.

Upon successful completion of the course students progress onto the T level qualifications in childcare and education.

This qualification is not a licence to practice and is designed to help learners progress onto higher level qualifications in childcare and education, which may eventually result in job roles such as practitioner in day nurseries, practitioner in nursery schools, practitioner in reception classes in primary schools or pre-school worker.

Modules will include:
Positive attitudes & behaviours, English, Maths and digital skills, skills for successful study, industry placement, and knowledge & skills for the workplace.
