Abi, FdA Early Years student

"Since starting the Early Years foundation degree I have become increasingly passionate about achieving my dream career of becoming an early year’s teacher. I have gained many skills, academically and personally, including academic writing, time management, reflective practice, working with others, research methods and delivering presentations. 

As the course is held on an evening, I am able to improve my practice whilst linking my experiences to ongoing assignments and modules, which is greatly beneficial to me as a practitioner. The workload is broken down into manageable and termly slots with regular opportunities to receive support from tutors. I am now thrilled to be starting my third and final year, as the reality of being a fully qualified teacher is in sight."
