    At the Childcare Expo yesterday I was talking to a lady from MNT training.

    From Spring 2014 they are going to be offering (in conjunction with a Uni) an online Early Years Foundation degree and the BA(Hons) top up.
    She said they were cheaper than the OU and can pay per module, study at own pace etc.

    I haven't used them myself but it is something I'm considering in the future.

    Anything and everything!!!
    You can continue with a BA (Hons) in childcare and education then EYPS...or whatever has replaced that now

    Or from the F/Degree you can choose many other subjects....the world is your oyster!

    It's student finance that fund it. I may have to pay it back once I earn a certain amount and the repayments stents too much but it gets wrote off after 30 years x
