Course Overview

This early years teaching degree covers the essential skills and knowledge you’ll need for teaching children aged 3-7. This includes primary schools, nurseries, and children’s centers.

We’ll provide you with training for covering the entire early year's foundation stage and key stage one. You’ll also spend time in schools learning how to teach and you’ll learn how to help primary-age children to flourish. You can study this course at our Ormskirk campus, or at Holy Cross College & University Centre in Bury.

When you finish the course, you’ll have the confidence and competence to take up your first teaching post. You’ll know the latest teaching strategies inside out, and have the experience to engage young children.
