Course summary

OVERVIEW

If you're interested in learning more about children and childhood and you envisage a career working with and for children and their families, this course will give you an excellent foundation.

Studying by distance learning allows you to study at your convenience. It gives you the flexibility to study from any location within a structured and supported framework. It also gives you the opportunity to combine gaining an academic qualification with your work or family commitments.

Our course will give you a fascinating insight into the way children experience their childhoods and how that experience influences them as they develop.

You'll look at childhood from a range of different critical perspectives and explore the factors that influence the childhood experience. You'll examine issues such as health, early-years legislation and global inequalities in childhood.

Students on the online learning course come from all over the world, including the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Australasia, as well as the UK.

HOW YOU'LL BE ASSESSED
