If you’ve been comparing prices and keep landing on £950 as the figure to beat, here’s the good news: that’s exactly what the NCFE CACHE Level 3 Diploma for Working in the Early Years Sector costs at Easy Training 123 — reduced from £1,800, with nothing stripped out to hit that price.
What £950 Actually Gets You
A lot of “cheap” courses cut corners somewhere — usually tutor support, placement guidance, or genuine accreditation. At £950, our course includes:
- Full access to the NCFE CACHE Level 3 Diploma for Working in the Early Years Sector (Qualification Number: 610/4164/6), a genuine “Full and Relevant” qualification recognised by the Department for Education
- Dedicated tutor support throughout, with marking and guidance on every assignment
- No exams — assessment is through a portfolio of evidence, built from written assignments and workplace observations
- Unlimited resubmissions if an assignment doesn’t pass first time
What the Qualification Covers
This diploma prepares you to become an Early Years Educator, working with children from birth to five years old, with additional knowledge of children aged five to seven. It’s made up of 10 mandatory units and 95 credits, and once completed, you’re intended to be ready to enter the workforce directly in roles such as an early years practitioner, nursery educator, or pre-school worker.
You’ll also need access to a placement in an early years setting to demonstrate practical competence — generally between 300 and 350 hours depending on your existing experience, so it’s worth confirming the exact figure when you enrol.

Why £950 Is a Genuinely Fair Price for This Qualification
When comparing prices for this diploma, it helps to know what actually varies between providers:
- Level and depth of the qualification — this is fixed by NCFE regardless of provider, so you’re not getting “less qualification” for a lower price here
- Support included — cheaper courses sometimes charge extra for tutor time, marking, or resubmissions; ours doesn’t
- Genuine accreditation — always worth checking a provider is a properly approved NCFE centre before paying anything
You can verify this exact qualification directly on the Ofqual Register of Regulated Qualifications, which confirms the qualification number, level, and current regulatory status — a quick check that protects you from providers overstating what they’re actually approved to deliver.
Who This Course Is For
This diploma suits:
- Anyone new to childcare looking for a genuine, affordable route into a nursery or early years role
- Nursery assistants ready to move up to a fully qualified Level 3 position
- Career-changers who can access a placement setting for children aged 0–5
You’ll need to be at least 16 years old to enrol, with no other formal entry requirements.
