If you already have a relevant background in Education this course will enable you to take that to degree level and study educational systems from early years to lifelong learning. There is a particularly strong focus on issues relating to inclusion for diverse learners from non-traditional backgrounds such as race and ethnicity, poverty and deprivation, gender, disability and learning difficulties, sexuality, and mental health, as well as those who are subject to abuse or bullying. You will undertake a placement in an educational setting (nursery, primary, secondary or further education/training context) to help you relate your theoretical knowledge to the workplace.
