This course provides an opportunity to engage in current debates on education by focusing on the contemporary approaches, skills, and methods used in teaching, learning, and educational wellbeing, and looking at how childhood is shaped by culture and society. Our students explore how people develop through education and, by taking part in placement and volunteering opportunities, gain a broad range of skills that are transferable to careers in socially orientated professions. Recent graduates have gone on to work in teaching, education practice, early years childcare, youth work, and educational publishing or choose to progress to postgraduate level courses, such as our Education Practice MA. Youll cover topics including perspectives on education, thinking and learning in higher education, historical and contemporary issues, teaching diversity, how people learn, and special educational needs.
