Education and Primary Studies with Foundation Year (Hons) Liverpool John Moores University

Overview

Children's future development and educational attainment depends on high quality provision and experiences during primary phase education. This course explores recent initiatives and the influence of historical and key primary phase pioneers on current practice. You will also examine how young children develop and learn and explore both national and international approaches to primary provision, policy and practice.

The Education and Primary Studies with Foundation Year (Hons) programme from Liverpool John Moores University  brings together all aspects of education such as the effects of poverty and social exclusion, and curriculum development. The needs and rights of children, and your moral and professional role in working with them, will form the foundation of your professional development and academic studies.

Employability

However, if you choose to base your career on your primary specialism, there are openings within centres and community groups that focus on the needs of young children and their families.

Alternatively, your degree could lead to any number of careers such as in educational management, private nursery management, educational social work or any of the caring professions that involve young children.
