In year 1, you will learn the foundation concepts of education and psychology: including human development, the influence of social interactions, the importance of individual differences, how we learn, as well as how, why, and where we educate. In year 2, you will deep dive into scientific ways of knowing, the mind and brain, social influences, and supporting learners with diverse needs. In addition, you will embark on an embedded professional practice placement through which you will explore your professional identity. In year 3, you will advance your understanding of human development and cognition, apply your knowledge from years 1 and 2 to professional context, and engage with an in depth research project exploring areas within the intersection of education and psychology, such as health, and well being.

Continuous assessment and examination. Assessments could include essays, group presentations, research-based reports and portfolio-based work. We’ll provide you with regular feedback on how well you're doing and give you regular guidance on how to improve your skills, knowledge and understanding.
