The part-time degree course at Liverpool Hope, which is based in the International School of Business, Information Technology and Enterprise, can be completed in up to six years. It is aimed at staff working in day nurseries, creches, out-of-school clubs and nursery schools. Students are expected to hold initial qualifications such as the NNEB, the NVQ level 3 in childcare or its equivalent. However, mature students who can demonstrate they would benefit from studying nursery management at degree level are 'actively encouraged' to apply.
Petra Luck, the award director at Hope, said, 'This unique degree programme will also add to the status of childcare professions locally and nationally.' She said the course is 'unique in terms of direct relevance to the market and unique in that it is being delivered on a flexible basis'.
