The programme offered by EtonHouse in association with Roehampton University draws upon theoretical and practical perspectives to illuminate understanding of education and the contexts in which it takes place. The course provides students with a broad and balanced knowledge of some of the principal concerns of early childhood education. It encourages the systematic analysis of the aims and purposes of early childhood education through critical reflection and collaborative enquiry and supports the development of key skills and provides a supportive environment for students in order to enable them to achieve their learning goals, monitoring their progression and achievement.
It supports and guides students in planning, undertaking and evaluating research in early childhood education and raises awareness of local, national and international issues in the domain. It also provides opportunities for students to appraise a variety of approaches to teaching and learning.
