Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether students who complete the early years T-level will be licensed to practise within early years settings.

We recognise that to work in an early years setting, a practitioner must hold a full and relevant early years qualification that has been approved by the Department for Education. When developing the Early Years T Level, we will make sure that it aligns to the Early Years criteria and will enable a student to practice within an early years setting.
