Description:

Children’s rights, the health and development of young people, how to protect the younger generation – all of these issues often find themselves in the headlines. Children are at the forefront of policy and debate in our society. This course helps you understand the issues and gain some crucial insights into what shapes children’s lives from birth to age 19.

We believe it’s not enough to study the issues affecting children. You also need to understand them from their perspective. The course looks at key topics from the point of view of the children who they affect. It could be ideal if you’re looking to start a career in teaching, early years, social care or child and youth policy work. There are also plenty of other occupations relating to children, young people and families, and our Childhood Studies course is designed to help you take the first step towards your career.
