This course is carefully designed to ensure the synthesis of practical understanding and critical analysis of theory and policy in this subject area. Most participants will already be employed in contexts providing education and other opportunities for children and adults identified with SEND. However, it is not necessary to be employed in an education setting to derive benefit from this course. The Autism Act 2009 and the Adult Autism Strategy 2009 require public bodies to understand autism, so if you are, for example, a social worker, a youth worker, or a police officer, this course can be of great benefit.
Applicants should usually have qualifications that demonstrate that they are suitably prepared for Level 7 study in the professional practice context. This will normally mean a good Honours degree (with a classification of 2:2 or above or the equivalent if the applicant had a degree from a non-UK university) and evidence that applicants are able to write at level 7. If an applicant has existing level 7 credits in a relevant field - it is possible for the applicant to apply for APL (Accredited Prior Learning) for the optional module on this course. Applicants are likely to be practicing education professionals, mostly practicing teachers or those working in a special school or alternative settings (including disability services in further and higher education and similar contexts).
