Industry EXCELLENCE ACADEMY FOR Childhood Studies

In our Industry Excellence Academy for Childhood Studies, you’ll equip yourself with all the skills that the childcare and education sector are crying out for. If you are a compassionate, patient, nurturing and encouraging person with an ability to recognise what each individual requires in order to succeed, you’ll be right at home in our Industry Excellence Academy for Childhood Studies.

You’ll gain an understanding of the skills and knowledge needed to care for young children, including issues around safeguarding, health and safety. You’ll also learn about child development, how to provide support to children and how to teach through play and activities.

If a career working with children or in education appeals to you but you aren’t yet ready for our Industry Excellence Academy, we’ll help to prepare you for a career with children in our Centre of Excellence for Childhood Studies. Here you’ll be able to gain the skills required to progress into the Academy under the guidance of our expert team.

Once you’ve completed your journey with us there are a number of different career options open to you if you want to work with children, ranging from Early Years Practioners who earn on average £23,400 a year, to Primary School Teachers with an average annual salary of £33,700.
