What are the best approaches to support learners who are struggling with learning? What are the complexities of inclusive education in a rapidly changing world? How do we address the current barriers to inclusivity?
Our MA Special and Inclusive Education (Online) course is designed to provide flexibility for professionals who want to increase their knowledge and skills in the field of special and inclusive education. Flexible learning allows you to fit your studies around other commitments, giving you the freedom to learn at your own pace.
Throughout the course, you’ll explore the educational needs of children considered to be neurodivergent who are identified with labels including learning difficulties, intellectual impairment, physical and sensory disabilities, communication impairments, literacy difficulties/dyslexia, autism and SEBD/ADHD. You’ll critically analyse contemporary debates, theory, and research in the field to help you develop effective approaches and structures for supporting your pupils. You'll learn how to work collaboratively with teachers, parents/carers and different agencies, enabling you to make a significant impact on the lives of children.
This programme is ideal for graduates, teachers, or other professionals who are interested in enhancing their knowledge and skills in special and inclusive education. If you have completed the National Award SEN Coordination, you can select modules from this programme to advance to a full MA qualification.
Our online course offers a flexible and convenient way to enhance your knowledge and skills in special and inclusive education. It provides you with the tools and expertise to make a positive difference in the lives of children with a range of learning difficulties and disabilities.
We also offer a face-to-face version of this course, studying in Nottingham – MA Special and Inclusive Education.
