Generally, students will have attained or will be working towards a relevant level 3 childcare / education qualification such as NNEB, CACHE, BTEC, NVQ. They will also be working or volunteering regularly in an early years setting or a workplace that provides services for young children and families.
All applicants will be required to provide a satisfactory enhanced disclosure document from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
Applicants are asked to attend an informal interview on campus. This provides applicants with an opportunity to:
- visit the campus;

During the interview the course tutors discuss the applicant's experiences of working with young children. The team also like to hear about applicants' interests, hobbies and responsibilities.
