Primary Education (Early Years 3-7) with QTS (Hons) Leeds Trinity University

Overview

The Primary Education (Early Years 3-7) with QTS (Hons) program offered by Leeds Trinity University fulfils the minimum entitlement of the Initial Teacher Training and Early Career Framework (ITTECF),  alongside an ambitious and innovative curriculum which provides opportunities to develop clear links between theory and practice along with a series of visiting speakers to enhance your understanding of all aspects of primary school life and learning.

You'll learn how experiential, play-based learning supports young children's development and how, as an effective practitioner, you can have a positive impact on children’s development and learning. Teaching in early years is dynamic, and you'll learn the professional skills related to planning, teaching and assessing, as well as how to manage a setting where children and adults work together in learning.
