  • Case study Jennie, Early Years and Childcare Consultant

    I wish I had done the top up degree sooner! The knowledge and experience of the lecturers has supported me no end in my current role as an early years professional. I have made new friends from a range of early years settings, both private, voluntary and independent. The sharing of good practice, professional discussions and debates, group projects and independent working has supported me within my role as an Early Years and Childcare Consultant and has enabled me to become a more reflective practitioner.
