Evidence shows it is the quality of teaching for children 0-5 that can make the biggest difference to children’s learning in the classroom and to their ultimate success in school. Our intent therefore, is for the Early Years e-Qualitas curriculum to be cohesive, integrated and personalised with placement needs in order to train high quality Early Years teachers, preparing trainees for their role as Early Years teachers, raising standards for young children aged 0-5.
We nurture a genuine passion for teaching, modelling a commitment to lifelong learning and professional development, placing evidence-based research in the foreground of our training.
We provide a broad and balanced EYITT Curriculum that is rigorous and ambitious, providing opportunities for trainees to reflect critically and to acquire a knowledge of:
- Practitioner health and wellbeing
- Evaluative and reflective planning
- Evidence informed
- Substantive EYFS knowledge
- Knowledge of how children learn and develop
- Supporting SEND
- Creating enabling environments
- Children’s progress and assessment
- Leading practice
- Promoting inclusion and diversity
- Phonics knowledge
- Maths knowledge
Our curriculum is created using twelve key components, each of which fit together to provide a comprehensive introduction to the core body of knowledge, skills and behaviours that define great Early Years teaching.
