T Level in Education and Early Years (Supporting Early Years)

Are you thinking about a future working in education? Do you want to work with children and young people of all ages? 

Our Level 3 T-Level in Education & Childcare will give you the foundation you need to set you on the path towards your ideal career.

Focussing on working with children aged 0-19, the T-Level qualification combines learning in the classroom with gaining vital ‘on-the-job’ experience.

In the second year of the course, you will have the option to specialise in working with under 5s as part of the EYFS as an Early Years Practitioner.

As part of the two-year course, you will gain core knowledge of subjects such as supporting education, health and wellbeing, safeguarding and Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND), as well as developing a range of technical and practical skills that employers are looking for.

You will be assessed through written and practical examinations, employer projects, group work, presentations and analysis. You will also be observed and assessed in the workplace.

The course will help you boost your employment prospects by gaining extensive experience on a work placement in a real-world environment, which will enable you to access employment directly after completion of the course, or you could progress onto higher education to qualify in one of many different roles such as primary, secondary or further education teaching.

College Maintenance Allowance (CMA): Anyone with a household income under £26,000 can receive up to £20 per week financial support to help pay for travel and meals and meet the costs of essential trips, books, stationery and equipment. The payments will be subject to full attendance on your course. A range of other financial support is available, depending on your personal circumstances. For more details visit nscg.ac.uk/finance
