Early childhood education, from a global perspective, emphasises children’s rights, social justice, and early childhood policy and practice. Led by world-leading experts at the IOE, UCL’s Faculty of Education and Society, this interdisciplinary programme supports students in developing knowledge and skills to address societal inequalities and tackle global challenges at the local, national, and international levels. The Early Childhood Education BA is the undergraduate flagship programme of the Department of Learning and Leadership, where you will learn from world-leading experts in Early Years, Primary Education, Leadership and Education Policy. Our students have the exciting opportunity to work with like-minded colleagues at the heart of London’s most thriving and stimulating global education community. Throughout the programme, you will be introduced to early childhood education as a field of formal and informal education for children from birth up to the age of eight. You will learn about early childhood as an educational, social, cultural, economic, anthropological, biological, psychological, political, and historical phenomenon concerned with social justice and children's rights. With a varied curricular offer, this programme includes practice-based modules designed to provide you with ‘real-life’ experiences to develop creative, interpersonal, and problem-solving skills. The departmental areas of expertise in leadership, literacies, global policies, and early years teaching will support you in developing technical and subject-specific abilities essential for future work and leadership across the early years sector and beyond.
