Designed for individuals committed to supporting the development and wellbeing of young children, this Foundation Degree offers a bridge between theoretical academic study and the realities of professional practice. Students who thrive in this environment are those eager to bridge the gap between classroom learning and the complexities of the contemporary Early Years sector, where the ability to critically evaluate policy and practice is paramount.

Delivered at Petroc (Barnstaple), the programme emphasizes small class sizes and personalized academic support. It provides a unique opportunity to explore childhood through multiple lenses—including psychological development, rights-based frameworks, and international educational perspectives. Graduates emerge with a robust understanding of leadership, multi-agency collaboration, and the practical skills necessary to foster inclusive environments where children can flourish.

Distinctive Partnership Model

Students benefit from a dual-institution experience, holding the status of both a college student at Petroc and a member of the University of Plymouth community. This provides access to specialized local learning resources while maintaining the academic standards and recognition of a university-awarded qualification. With a strong focus on employability, the curriculum is structured to prepare practitioners to lead, make informed decisions, and advocate for children in various professional settings.
