Take the next step and gain the skills you need for the complex and ever-evolving educational landscape.

Our MA Education course will give you a real taste of educational theory and concepts in diverse contexts, deepening your understanding and broadening your horizons.

You’ll dive deep into the hot topics surrounding education, research methods, and international perspectives and cap it all off with a major research project where you get to explore a real-life topic you're passionate about.

Plus, we've got optional modules that cover areas like early childhood development, leadership and management, special and inclusive education, and the foundations of TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages).

We keep your learning experience dynamic by altering module content to match what's happening in the world of education.

Study your way, selecting to do a Postgraduate Certificate in Education after Stage 1 or a Postgraduate Diploma in Education at the end of Stage 2, all based on your earned credits.

We offer modules in both the daytime and evenings, so you can find a pattern of delivery that fits with your other commitments, whether you are working, volunteering or studying full time. In 2024-25 you can choose evening modules from: Coaching and Mentoring, Early Childhood, Leadership and Management or Social Justice and Community Engagement as well as the mandatory modules shared by all pathways.
