NVQ Level 2 and 3 Children’s Care, Learning and Development
students from the Whiterock Family Centre in Belfast and pupils
from St Josephs College in Belfast recently participated in an
Early Years Master Class entitled ‘The
Needs of Young Learners’. The Master class was delivered
by Senior Lecturer Deirdre Loughran at St. Mary’s University
College in Belfast.
During the Master Class session final year BEd (Hons) student Anne Marie Hughes provided an honest, informative and realistic insight into her experience as a mature student in Higher Education.
The event was such a success that the participants have requested
further Master Classes.
This quote from one of the mature participants sums up her experience: –
“I found it very inspirational, I felt at home and welcomed. This experience has made me feel that maybe I could go on to Higher Education, it has made me less afraid.”
