Level 3 Early Years Educator Apprenticeship - Trott's Hill Primary School

Introduction

A rewarding, hands-on progression opportunity for staff working with young children during their early developmental stages.

As an apprentice, you’ll gain hands-on experience, learn new skills and work alongside experienced staff.

About the Employer

I would like to wish you a very warm welcome to Trotts Hill Primary School. Trotts Hill is a welcoming and happy school where everyone is valued and respected. Staff place great emphasis on personal, social and emotional development by fostering caring attitudes, thoughtfulness, mutual respect, self-discipline and self-confidence. We aim to develop each child as an individual, nurturing their strengths and talents.

 
Parents and carers play a very important part of school life and we value strong partnership with them. We encourage our parents to become involved in all aspects of school life, so that, as partners, we can promote high standards of learning, behaviour and attitudes to enable every child to reach their full potential.

 
We believe Trotts Hill is a school to be proud of; a place where children learn and enjoy doing so. 

What You'll Do

Working as part of an Early Years Team, you will help plan and deliver activities set by the Government for the learning, development, and care of children from birth to 5 years old.

• Learning and development in infants and young children, including the significance of attachment, and the role and responsibilities of a key person
• Explore attachment theories and philosophical approaches and how they are linked to early childhood learning
• The importance of holistic development and an understanding of the EYFS and non-statutory guidance to plan, observe and assess in all areas of the Early Years Curriculum
• How to work cooperatively with parents/carers, colleagues, and other professionals to enhance babies’ and young children’s learning
• Gain opportunities to share good practice and ideas with apprentices from other EYFS settings

Training Outcome
