Developed in partnership with Public Health England (PHE) and funded by Health Education England (Thames Valley), ‘Supporting Physical Development in Early Childhood’ is a free-to-access course that is 18 hours long, divided into three-hour sessions over six weeks. The course is hosted on the FutureLearn platform.
Each week includes a balance of essential underpinning knowledge and practical advice, with opportunities throughout for students to reflect on their learning with others.
