Where can I find out about funding for a Foundation Degree programme in early years?
Course costs are the main outlay for higher education study. They will depend on whether the course is part-time or full-time, the level of learning undertaken and the qualification sought. The fees for Foundation Degrees are broadly similar to those for Honours Degrees. Other costs need to be taken into account if study has an impact on the individual’s income or ability to earn. In some cases the employer may be willing to pay for the course or contribute. It is also worth investigating whether those who are leaving employment to study full-time can return to work on a casual or part-time basis during their breaks.
