The MA course designed for those working in children's centres has now been running for 11 years and is continuing to evolve. Changes have recently been made to core modules which have been driven by the participants themselves.
We refer to 'participants' rather than 'students', as we want to promote the idea of a learning community, where facilitators and participants learn from each other. Feedback has been very positive in this area, with many participants finding the learning environment stimulating and respectful.
The focus of the course is on 'integrated services'. Participants are recruited from different disciplines so the field of early years is mirrored in the group interactions and in the learning community that develops over two to three years. The emphasis is very much on working with participants in the way we hope they will subsequently work with children, families and staff in their settings.
