Education professionals make a difference to the lives of children and young people, inspiring them to learn and developing their knowledge and skills to prepare them for their future. The study of education provides an insight into how children and young people learn and the ways in which this is shaped and delivered. The subject looks at learning and teaching through four key areas: philosophy, sociology, history, and psychology.
Some of our courses aim to incorporate research-based opportunities, and as a result, you'll be encouraged to undertake small-scale research projects in an area of education such as learning or teaching approaches, comparisons of global education systems, studies of curricula, or special educational needs. Our course have been designed to provide you with a strong base for further study and beyond.
Our full-time undergraduate students may have the opportunity to study abroad at a partner institution, with the potential for further work or volunteering while away. This gives our students the chance to think about their course in an international context, as well as experience new ideas and cultures.
The course has been fantastic in allowing me to develop a strong level of knowledge in a range of areas and gain key skills that are vital to my future study and employment.
