Description
The overall aim of this course is to develop individual practitioner's practice and, through collaboration, to establish a sustainable community of practice. Already experienced practitioners on entry, you will aspire towards 'leading practitioner' status. Given this aspiration, the course will present you with a range of opportunities to rehearse, and hone, the full range of professional skills, including assessing, and being assessed, by your peers.
Collaborative group work, and self and peer appraisal are key elements of the experience in most modules. The final module, the major project, requires that each student undertakes a piece of action research whose focus is the development/improvement of an aspect of early years practice.
