MA
Summary
Our innovative MA explores education from an international and multi-dimensional perspective, capitalising on our long-standing experience in education and world-class research, committed to transforming global educational theory and practice. You’ll examine contemporary educational issues, theory, practice and policy through economic, social, political and professional lenses, addressing topics like inclusion, inequality, professional identity, racism and gender in education. Helping you become a better, more informed educator, the MA will equip you with the skills and tools to pursue further research and work as a practitioner, mentor or leader in a wide variety of educational settings in the UK or overseas.

When you study our MA in Education, you will focus on contemporary educational issues, theory, practice and policy - as viewed through economic, social, political and professional lenses.

Drawing inspiration from the latest research, you’ll study critical perspectives on education policy, professional identity and a variety of global education issues. For example, you will explore how educational inequalities are associated with race, gender, class and culture and how those associations affect students' experiences of schooling and their educational outcomes.
The course is likely to be of interest to a wide range of students and professionals in for-profit and non-profit settings: teachers, trainers and lecturers; education advisors, consultants and specialists; youth workers, counsellors and mentors; educational administrators, managers and leaders.

Summary
Our Masters in Education programme is an innovative programme that allows you to approach education as a multi-dimensional discipline, exploring educational issues through economic, social, political and professional lenses. The programme is aimed at educational practitioners, including those wishing to prepare for original research at postgraduate level, or seeking a career in education leadership and management in the UK and internationally.
The programme is ideal for individuals looking to develop more critical and theoretical perspectives on a broad range of educational matters. The MA Education provides an excellent opportunity for you to develop both intellectually and professionally.
Successful Masters level study will enable you to further develop and reflect on your practice. Our practice-focused modules, such as ‘Reflecting on Practice’, will allow you to reflect critically on aspects of your own practice, and widen your understanding of the latest teaching developments and education research at local, regional, national and international levels. For example, we believe our MA teaching fits well with the latest government strategies and policies published under the Teacher Recruitment and Retention Strategy and the Early Career Framework. We would anticipate that the programme will prepare you to make positive changes in your learning communities and to become an effective mentor for both, early career and more experienced colleagues.
Undertaking our MA will enable you to demonstrate to employers a level of critical and intellectual rigour, which can place you at the forefront of developments in practice. You will have the opportunity to demonstrate the capacity for sustained and systematic engagement with current evidence-driven curriculum, pedagogy, assessment and contemporary policy matters. This can potentially put you in a stronger position for progression, promotion and leadership in education.
