• Education

Over the years, we’ve built up strong relationships with schools and other educational establishments. This has helped ensure that our teacher training courses are the right mix of practical in-school training and academic study on campus. We cover the whole age range, from early years to further education, and our graduates leave the university with the enthusiasm and confidence to motivate and inspire their students. If you’re an experienced teacher, we offer degrees to develop your career, plus courses that explore education as an academic discipline, including the opportunity to take your studies right up to PhD level.
