Inclusive Education

Our MA in Inclusive Education invites you to explore what it truly means to create inclusive learning environments across diverse educational contexts. You’ll engage with critical perspectives on marginalisation, disability, race, culture, and difference, drawing on fields such as critical pedagogy, disability studies, and critical race theory.

Grounded in disciplines including sociology, psychology, education, philosophy, and social policy, the course encourages you to reflect on your own beliefs and explore how theory and practice overlap in shaping inclusive approaches. You’ll examine how global pressures, power, agency, inequality, and sustainability influence educational experiences and opportunities.

Children’s rights, identity, empowerment, and social justice are central themes throughout the programme. You’ll also develop a critical understanding of research methodologies and carry out your own inquiry, supported by shared learning with students from across our education masters programmes.

You’ll be part of a vibrant and supportive academic community, with access to university-wide services and dedicated programme support, including a personal tutor who will guide you throughout your studies.

We offer both full-time and part-time study options. The full-time route is ideal for those taking time out to focus on their studies, while the part-time pathway is designed to fit around professional commitments, allowing you to apply your learning directly to your current role.
