Visit programme website for more information

Overview

The Childhood Studies (Top-up) (Online) (Hons) programme at Teesside University presents the opportunity for you to engage with multiple perspectives on childhood, and the critical application of theory to practice with children and families.

Key Facts

 Integral to the degree is the holistic knowledge and understanding of the ecology of child development in the context of the family, community and wider socio-political contexts.

Course modules build on the knowledge and skills gained during previous level 5 study. You critically explore wider debates associated with the children’s workforce. For example, the Ethical Practice for Working with Children module will debate ethical issues associated with safeguarding children, confidentiality and professional boundaries.

This online learning course is delivered over three semesters. This takes into consideration the demands of online learning and full time employment, and allows additional time for you to successfully complete your dissertation. 

You progress through the course one module at a time, which enables you to receive feedback on submitted assignments and gain feedforward in order to progress your academic writing further. It also minimises unnecessary assignment bunching and enables both you and your tutors to monitor your progress throughout the course.

Career opportunities

The BA (Hons) Childhood Studies Top Up (Online) is designed to respond to the demand for a top-up degree that provides a direct route to graduate status for those wishing to progress their career within the Children’s Workforce. 

The modules enable you to engage with multiple perspectives on childhood, promote the critical application of theory to practice with children and families, and encourage you to become reflective and reflexive practitioners able to respond to the dynamic nature of the sector.
