This programme prepares students to teach 3-7 year olds, with a specialism in the Foundation Stage (Nursery and Reception) and Key Stage 1 (Years 1 and 2) and includes two school placements, one in Foundation Stage and one in Key Stage 1. This is a crucial stage of children’s education which, as the name implies, lays the foundation for everything which follows. Teaching in this phase is both fascinating and intellectually demanding. You will get experience from two main school placements and teach in two age bands within your chosen age range specialism (one in Foundation Stage and one in Key Stage 1). The placements are in contrasting schools to give you a breadth of school-based experience
