Education and Early Years - Level 2 

We’ve had a couple of guest speakers talk about antibullying and neurodiversity.

The tutors are really friendly, they always have a conversation with you, and they’re supportive as well, help us with our assignments and very welcoming.

I’m doing my work placement at a nursery and infant school so far it’s been really good; I’ve done lots of painting with the children getting involved with their messy activities and helping out the teachers with any jobs and tasks that need doing.
