Preston College Further Education Prospectus 2025-26

EDUCATION & CHILDCARE

Working with children and young people is both rewarding and fulfilling. It’s not simply nursery and childcare providers that offer a range of job roles, there are also opportunities in social care, education, mental health, family support and young offending teams. At Preston College we offer the T Level in Education and Early Years which combines classroom learning with an extended industry placement which provides invaluable experience in the workplace. The T Level in Education and Early Years not only shows employers that you are ready to work but also earns UCAS points, so you can progress to university to study degree programmes.
