The Department for Education has defined the content of Level 2 qualifications that practitioners must hold to be included in the ratios specified in the Early Years Foundation Stage Statutory Framework. BIIAB has developed the BIIAB Level 2 Diploma for the Early Years Practitioner specifically to meet the skills and knowledge criteria defined by the Department for Education.
The BIIAB Level 2 Diploma for the Early Years Practitioner is aimed at people working with young children from birth to the age of five in early years settings in England. It also provides knowledge of children up to the age of seven. It is an occupational qualification suitable for people working in the following roles:
- Early years practitioner
- Early years assistant
- Classroom assistant
- Pre-school practitioner
- After-school assistant
- Nursery assistant
- Childminder assistant
- Playgroup assistant.
The primary purpose of the qualification is to confirm occupational competence. It is envisaged that the qualification will be added to the Level 2 Intermediate Apprenticeship in the Children and Young People’s Workforce SASE Framework. It is also envisaged that the qualification will form the basis of the apprenticeship standard for Early Years Practitioner currently under development.
