Programme structure

What will I study?
You will study two subject areas:

Special and Inclusive Education
Education Studies.
Special and Inclusive Education modules begin with an exploration of the origins and development of the issue. Later modules then consider access, strategies and solutions used in special and inclusive education as well as in the diversity of such provision.

Education Studies modules consider all facets of how we learn and develop, as well as looking in detail at how education systems are organised, particularly the English system.

Alongside these subjects you will study core modules to develop your transferrable and employability skills:

Developing Learning in Higher Education
Build your own ‘toolbox’ of essential skills, such as academic writing, to help your transition into University study.
Learning in Contexts
This module spans all three years and has employability at its heart. It allows you to develop your personal and professional skills by putting the theory into practice. It also offers opportunities to achieve additional professional and external accreditation.
Field Placement (preparation)
Prepare for your second year placement with support on finding a suitable opportunity and understanding the skills you’ll need to succeed in the workplace.
