and this December, we’re adding a sprinkle of holiday magic by introducing Abingdon & Witney College’s Advent Calendar 2024 🎅.
We offer a Foundation Degree in Early Years which can be converted into a BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Studies with our one-year top up course.
This course is provided in partnership with Oxford Brookes University and you will receive a qualification awarded by the University.
Our partnership means that you can now study flexibly at a location convenient to you with a course that fits in with your lifestyle.
Taking your Oxford Brookes University degree at Abingdon & Witney College means you will benefit from a strong academic partnership that brings together the best of both institutions. In addition to the facilities and support offered here at the College, you also have full access to Oxford Brookes University’s resources.
The Early Years and Early Childhood Studies degrees have been designed for experienced childminders and early year practitioners who work in a variety of early year settings; with families or playgroups and in schools, nurseries, and children’s centres.
The courses will help you to develop your knowledge and practice, enhancing your career prospects or helping you gain access to further training alongside your current work.
You will be taught through a combination of lectures, seminars, and workshops and supported through independent study sessions.
