Did you know?
To work in the field of Education you should have:
- A responsible, reliable and mature attitude
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
- A flexible, adaptable, enthusiastic approach to work
- Empathy towards others
Our courses in Education provide hands-on training for those wishing to become an early years practitioner (including wrap-around care), playworker, or education support assistant. Learners will benefit from dedicated work placements, allowing the opportunity to put theory into practice and gain all the skills required for a career working with children and young people.
A career in Education is both highly rewarding and challenging. What’s more, this sector is expanding and demand for qualified staff is set to rise.
Registration with the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC) is available to students who have successfully completed Early Education & Child Care qualifications.
A route into Primary Education is equally accessible on completion of the HNC Early Education & Child Care.
