Education (Negotiated)

This programme is taught at University campus locations and also at schools and colleges (where numbers allow) in order to support staff carrying out key tasks for themselves and their organisations.

If you already have some Masters level credits (from your PGCE or other courses for example) you may be able to fast track part of the award.

The award is available at Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma and Masters. All study is at Masters level and usually forms years one, two and three of a part-time Masters course.

All the awards are designed to help you with your day-to-day work teaching, supporting other teachers in improving their work and leading and managing in schools, colleges, community settings, workplaces, local authorities and other education settings.

This award focuses on developing practice in relation to the needs of the organisation. A variety of modules can be studied including: Educational Leadership; Community Learning; Learning and Assessment; Data for Educational Improvement; Mentoring and Coaching, Inter-professional Working.

Our guiding principle is to place learning in the workplace at the heart of the programme. This means that what you learn in the workplace is just as important as the formal study you undertake with us. We work closely with employers to ensure that the programme is relevant and responsive to the complex demands of education contexts.

We value the knowledge that you have already gained through your prior experience and you are encouraged to contribute your ideas and experiences in taught sessions.

Organisations can negotiate the content of the Cetificate and Diploma levels of the award to meet organisational development needs. For the final Masters stage, everyone does a Research Methods module and a Dissertation.

Once you have your Masters degree, you will have the opportunity to progress to our PhD and EdD awards, Doctoral level programmes aimed at helping you develop your capabilities even further.
