Course Summary

Why is our education system organised the way it is? How can those working within the sector influence social justice and empower those in education? Throughout our Education course, you’ll explore these and other questions from a range of disciplinary perspectives. From media, youth and play to disability, citizenship and development you’ll consider issues such as the way education differs across national and international contexts. We want to make your experience as interactive and collaborative as possible. The degree is designed to introduce you to a range of current debates and contemporary issues in education, combined with practical experience. As you progress through the degree, you will have the option to explore your personal journey within education, tailoring your study to your career intentions. You may opt for units focusing on issues such as global agendas in education, or volunteer in a nursery to understand child development. This course also offers the chance to explore areas of Secondary Education opening-up new, exciting, career opportunities.
