This full and relevant course aims to equip the apprentice to work as an educator. Educators are highly trained professionals who play a key role in ensuring young children learn and develop well and are healthy and safe. Working with children from birth to 7 years of age educators may work in a range of settings including full day care such as nurseries, childrens centres, pre-schools, reception classes in first schools, or as childminders. Educators may also supervise other junior members of staff or be a child’s keyworker.
