Our online courses are delivered via live interactive sessions led by our experienced tutors.

These courses are for anyone working with young children who wants to develop their practice and learn more about a Froebelian approach.

Froebel Trust Online Course

Our full online course covers all six themes, which are central to a Froebelian approach to early childhood education. We call them the Elements of Froebelian practice.

The course includes plenty of practical activities and will:

  • build on your current knowledge
  • develop your practice
  • inspire you in your on-going work with young children
  • help you to embed Froebelian practice in your school, setting or organisation
  • connect you with other educators who want to develop a Froebelian approach.

The course is live and interactive, taking place via Zoom with experienced Froebel Trust Tutors.

Each Element is covered in four online sessions and each session lasts 2.5 hours. So the whole course involves 24 online sessions / 60 hours of learning.

Next online course starting in September 2025
