Additional Information:
The acquisition of knowledge of early childhood studies is progressive, and therefore study of the core areas continues and deepens throughout the honours degree. The revised benchmark statements for Early Childhood Studies (QAA, 2022) acknowledge the importance related to knowledge and understanding of pedagogical approaches for working with babies, young children, their families and communities and this is reflected in the module focus.
