The guidance for level 3 early years’ qualifications has now changed and students can study for this course alongside GCSE English and maths.

Coun Roy Miller said: “Barnsley Council’s Adult Skills and Community Learning service provides an excellent pathway for beginning or enhancing a career working with children, and informal information sessions are available to help you decide which qualifications best suit you.”
