Summary
The National MA Education (Wales) is a truly transformative and sector-leading programme for educational professionals in Wales, from early career teachers to senior leaders.
-
The educational landscape in Wales is changing rapidly. Teaching not only requires the mastery of a complex set of skills to guide, motivate, and facilitate student learning, but also the ability to enquire into professional practice in order to improve it.
-
This course, which has been collaboratively developed by seven universities in Wales, through direct engagement with a variety of key stakeholders including the Welsh government, will ensure that all education professionals in Wales have the same high-quality opportunity to enhance their professional knowledge, engage with research, and to improve their professional practice.
Key course features: - This national programme is delivered across Wales by seven Welsh universities working together to provide the National Master’s at local centres across Wales.
-
The programme reflects the key education priorities in Wales and looks outwards to draw upon the expertise of internationally recognised guest lecturers.
-
The programme is delivered using a blended approach of online learning and three face-to-face National Saturdays each semester, where teachers can get together to exchange their experiences of best practice.
-
Teachers with an undergraduate QTS qualification can gain their degree in three years of part-time study.
-
Teachers who have gained 60 M level credits during their PGCE QTS programme can enter the degree programme in the second year of study and complete it in two years.
-
The programme is available for delivery and assessment bilingually, in collaboration with university partners with the relevant subject expertise in Welsh and English.
