Course Summary

This MA Education extends your knowledge, understanding and skills in the field of education and aims to improve your educational practice through intensive study and research. You can tailor the course to your interests or background through option modules and the research project. If you prefer, you can work towards an endorsed MA on a specialist area. Current endorsements include Leadership and Management, Education Technology, Early Years, and Special Educational Needs. Through our Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process, you can also transfer up to 90 Master's level credits gained from previous postgraduate study in associated disciplines, including PGCEs. The MA also provides a clear route to a Doctorate in Education.

Graduates from this course may go on to develop careers in a wide range of roles and institutions, from middle and senior management opportunities in education and community organisations to doctoral study and research.

Modules

This module allows students to develop an appreciation for the global aspects and impact of education. Students will be taught to engage in comparative study and research, examining the organisation of educational provision, pedagogical traditions, and policy and developments in education across the world. Students will then be called on to critically reflect upon these in light of their professional and/or personal experience, using comparative theoretical frameworks.
