This newly developed, strongly vocational degree is ideal for students seeking a fulfilling career in education, while not wishing to immediately gain qualified teacher status.
The only undergraduate course of its kind in London, BA Education Practice will appeal to those already working as a teaching assistant (TA), secondary or primary, and looking for career progression. It's equally ideal for college and sixth-form leavers seeking to explore the discipline of education while benefiting from a hands-on, practical route into the sector and the many careers it offers.
The BA Education Practice program offers a number of career paths, including:
The opportunity, for those with TA experience, to become an accredited Higher Level Teaching Assistant (HLTA), is now formally recognized as a graduate-level outcome.
Progression to our one-year PGCE Primary following graduation, to achieve qualified teacher status (with a 20% alumni discount on the tuition fees).
Progression to our one-year MA TESOL for students who may wish to work internationally in English-speaking schools, teaching pupils with English as a second language (also with a 20% tuition fee reduction).
The course will also equip you to work in a wide range of educational settings, including government departments, community and voluntary organizations, social services, youth organizations, libraries, and museums.
The course content of BA Education Practice offers students a deep understanding of working life in schools, the education system, and the issues faced by classroom practitioners. Placement periods are arranged for students to gain hands-on experience. All teaching and learning are informed by Roehampton's unrivaled 180-year heritage in teaching, and by the work of education philosopher Friedrich Froebel, whose followers established Froebel College in the 1920s. Students also benefit from Roehampton's vast network of partner schools across London and the southeast, and from the world-class reputation for special educational needs (SEN) specialism that our School of Education enjoys.
Timetabling has been designed with an unusual degree of flexibility, such that students who work or have other commitments can opt to attend university one day a week, with further online lectures and seminars on one evening from home. Students who are not working can opt for a more traditional university timetable spread across the week.
