As an Early Years Practitioner Apprentice, you will play an important role in supporting the welfare, safety, and development of children, ensuring that any safeguarding concerns are reported appropriately.

You will assist in planning and delivering engaging, purposeful play activities in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage, helping to support children’s learning, including their literacy, numeracy, and language development. Working closely with parents, colleagues, and external agencies, you will help ensure that each child’s individual needs are met while promoting healthy lifestyle choices through play.

You will use your understanding of child development and strong communication skills to engage with all children, including those who may require additional support, and help them through key transitions such as starting school or changes at home. The role also includes supporting respectful care routines, such as feeding, nappy changing, and dental care.

Your trainer assessor will meet with you regularly to provide teaching, learning and feedback from assessments completed. To support your progress you will be required to complete a reflective journal of the learning you have undertaken and discuss this with your trainer assessor.
