Early Years Education and Professional Practice with Early Years Practitioner Status (EYPS) - BA (Hons)

Within these programs, you will earn qualified Early Years Practitioner Status (EYPS), gaining practical work-based experience combined with theoretical and policy-based knowledge as well as the transferable skills required for effective Early Years practice, including the management of Early Years settings. The program has been developed in direct response to changes in Early Years provision within Wales and the UK to provide well-qualified early childhood specialists working with young children and their families. 

A fundamental aspect of the degree is the 700 hours of assessed practice-based experience that you will complete in order to gain EYPS. This is made up of a weekly placement during each year of your study in a range of relevant settings such as infant classrooms, private nurseries, integrated children’s centers, and day-care facilities. As part of your degree, you will also spend time in our campus-based Forest School provision, where you will be able to gain first-hand experience of this dynamic approach to early education. In addition, you will also have an opportunity to spend time in our MiniMets room which has been developed to allow you to experience excellence in practice through practical sessions.
