"furtherInformation": "•\tTypically, a minimum of one year’s experience in practice with a minimum of two days a week (minimum of 12 hours per week accumulating to 360 hours per year of study in a relevant role, either as an employee or a volunteer). \n•\tIn exceptional cases, it might be appropriate to recruit students directly from a Level 3 apprenticeship or other courses in which it can be demonstrated that there is a significant element of professional practice.\n•\tTypically, a Level 3 Diploma, NVQs, access to HE programmes, subject/vocational qualifications: however, the course welcomes applicants with non-traditional level 3 qualifications.\n•\tWe encourage applications from mature students and recognise that their experience or qualifications may differ from those mentioned previously. This is supported by the QAA Characteristics of Foundation Degrees (QAA, 2024 p.7), that states Universities should have “flexible admissions requirements, including the establishment of effective procedures to assist applicants from diverse backgrounds who may be able to demonstrate their suitability for entry onto a foundation degree in a variety of ways.”\n•\tStudents are required to complete and submit a signed Workplace Agreement, endorsed by the head teacher or workplace manager of the setting where they are employed or volunteer. The Workplace Agreement formalises the tripartite partnership between the student, the setting, and the University, and confirms that the student holds a current and valid Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) clearance.\n•\tSubmission of a completed Workplace Agreement is a strict condition of enrolment and until the Workplace Agreement has been received by the University Placement Office, the student is provisionally enrolled. \n•\tInstructions on the return of the Workplace Agreement is provided during the enrolment and induction process. Students who fail to meet this requirement within the specified timeframe may be subject to an enforced break in learning, unless exceptional circumstances apply.\n\nIn line with the priority which it gives to promoting opportunities for lifelong learning and widening access to Higher Education, the University welcomes applications from prospective students who are seeking to gain exemption from some parts of an academic programme by gaining Recognition of Prior Learning. Such claims may be based either on a previous course of study or on experience gained in paid employment or voluntary activities, bridging assignments are also available if required to enable students seeking direct entry into Levels 5 to meet programme specific Level 4 module outcomes if previous study does not align with the corresponding the University FdA learning outcomes.",

"summary": "The Foundation Degree in Special Educational Needs, Disability (SEND) and Inclusive Practice is a blended, work-based programme designed for those supporting children and young people with additional needs across the 0–25 age range. It is ideal for practitioners and volunteers working in early years, schools, colleges, specialist or alternative provision, as well as in youth, health, or social care settings.\n\nThe programme combines practical learning with live online teaching and occasional campus sessions. You will attend online classes twice a week in real time, with five in-person teaching days across the academic year, making it possible to continue working or volunteering while you study.\n\nOver the two-year programme, you will build on your existing experience of working with children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), applying this experience to your studies. In your first year, you will explore approaches to learning for children and young people with additional needs and examine how your practice supports their learning and development. You will also reflect on your professional role, supporting your ongoing development, while studying key topics such as child development and social interaction to strengthen your practical knowledge.\n\nIn your second year, you will explore important topics such as inclusion, equality, and diversity, as well as ways to support the development of children and young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities. You will also examine different approaches to teaching (pedagogy) and develop skills in reflecting critically on your own practice.\n\nThroughout the programme, you will have opportunities to work alongside students from related courses, such as those based in early childhood settings, schools, or youth work. This collaboration will help broaden your understanding of working with learners across a range of ages and settings and strengthen your future career prospects.",
