What are the entry requirements?

The Certificate is suitable for early years practitioners who will be implementing the EYFS in England in registered early years settings. It is appropriate for those who already have a recognised Level 3 qualification such as NVQ in Early Years Care and Education or Children’s Care, Learning and Development and who wish to update their skills. Other practitioners at different levels may also find the Certificate is suitable for them but must recognise this is not a full level 3 qualification.

The Certificate is suitable for those working within nursery and reception classes in schools. There are no formal entry requirements but some assessments will require the candidate to be working with children from birth to 5 years in a regulated setting.
