Institute of Education

Here at Staffordshire University, we’re on a mission to champion education from pre-school to professor. That’s why we set up the Institute of Education.

It’s brought together our wide range of expertise, including early years, teacher training and professional development, research projects and bespoke support for schools. It means we can support you at every stage of your professional journey.

What we offer

If you’re just starting on your path, we have three undergraduate degrees that will help you enter the education sector. If you’ve already got your degree and are looking to train as a teacher, choose one of our PGCEs specialising in different aspects of primary, secondary and post-16 education.

Our Ofsted rated 'Good' nursery provides full day-care for children ages 0 to 5 and is available for students, staff and members of the local community.

Starting your career

You’ll get so much more than a qualification by studying with our Institute of Education. We offer the whole University experience.

From day one, you’ll be immersed in exciting and interactive learning opportunities. You will put education theory into practice in real classrooms as we work with dozens of schools across the region. These experiences include community projects and events in the local area - like planting trees in Hanley Park - to art-based activities in the environment promoting a sustainable world.

And you’ll learn from the best during your time at the University.

National Student Survey results

The National Student Survey gives students from across the country the opportunity to look back on their University experience and give their honest feedback on teaching, course content, and much more. Here's how our Education courses stack up in the rankings.
