This course will allow students to engage with the theory and practice of the role of the teacher in the setting in which they work, but with a particular focus on the other two settings in age range (0-3, 3-5, 5-8) in which they are not normally employed. This course is designed to follow on from and compliment ED50P7. Course content will support the Early Years Framework (2008) through the development of specialist Early Years provision which will help to build the resilience of children, improve the capacity of parents and contribute towards developing supportive communities.

Students will undertake professional practice in two other settings at alternative stages to their own (two of 0-3, 3-5, 5-8) - Students, working in Action Learning Sets, will engage with on-line learning resources and practical workshops and undertake an action research project involving two linked issues or approaches of individual interest and relevance to 0-3 and 3-8 and the four threaded themes: child development and learning; the child in the socio-cultural context; educational approaches and issues: shaping change in practice settings; exploring issues and applications in practice through personal research and enquiry.
Information on contact teaching time is available from the course guide.
