As educators, we can have a significant impact on children’s opportunities to flourish and on the learning experiences and life choices of young people and adults. If you are interested in the academic study of education, and attracted to opportunities to pursue a wide choice of careers in educational fields - from teaching to community learning, international education to policy work, or research - our BA (Hons) Education Studies programme could be ideal for you.

Course Details – Assessment Method
Assessment varies depending on the modules you choose.
We recognise that all students perform differently depending on how they are being assessed, which is why we use a combination of assessment methods. Coursework may therefore include essays, reports, presentations, newspapers, posters, diaries and a dissertation. Exams are limited to the main core modules.
Constructive feedback is important in helping you to identify your strengths and areas where you may need to put in more work, so this will be provided regularly as you progress through each module.
