Bristol, University of the West of England (UWE Bristol), BA (Hons), Education and Early Childhood Studies
Education At level 1, the student studies 3 introductory modules, including 1 in learning difficulty; at levels 2 and 3 the student has a chance to study theoretical questions such as thinking and learning, or education in Europe and how to meet individual needs of pupils; the student has an opportunity to pursue their own particular interests through a choice of options or independent study; a substantial dissertation option at level 3 could give the student an opportunity to do a project relating to the other half of their award. Early childhood studies Contemporary study of early childhood invites a re-consideration of what it means to be a child, a parent, a carer and a human being; on the course the student asks some challenging and fascinating questions: what is play and what purpose does it serve? what kind of care ought children be entitled to? if children have rights, do they have responsibilities? what does social policy have to do with young children? at what age is it possible to identify children as having special educational needs? as well as asking these questions the student is expected to collect data on current provision for young children.
