Course content

This specialist education pathway seeks to investigate the complexities around the concept of inclusion. Study is focused on those who might experience marginalisation in society, particularly in educational contexts.

There is a strong emphasis on finding ways to develop inclusive curricula to meet the needs of all learners including for example, those defined as having special educational needs, travellers, those from challenging backgrounds and ethnic minorities.

MA in Education, Inclusion and Special Needs can be studied one year full-time, or two years part-time.
