If you want to work with or for the benefit of children, it is vital that you gain a true understanding of the issues affecting them. Through this course you will gain a "whole child perspective" from pre-birth to early adulthood (0-18 years). You will develop an understanding of children's education, social influences, health, play, leisure and social rights issues, giving you the background you need to enter any career involving children, from teaching through to community development work.

Our course is designed to provide a wide range of work and further study options. You can choose to go into paid work as a teaching assistant or learning mentor, and you will also be qualified to undertake social care duties or find work in voluntary or community sectors.
