Course Overview

This intellectually challenging and thought-provoking course is now offered online via our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), Moodle.  

It opens up the world of Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and offers you the chance to enter the world of work with confidence. We’ll equip you for a range of careers helping to bring about a more inclusive society. 

Our course takes you on a fascinating journey through this complex area. You'll learn about every aspect of the subject in line with government policy, including autism, speech, language and communication, challenging behaviour, disabilities, dyslexia, therapeutic teaching and learning, as well as alternative educational provisions. 

You'll develop a reflective approach to special education and critical thinking skills that are transferable to the workplace. 

You'll have access to our online student community and discussion forums so you can work with the other online students to discuss and resolve issues related to your studies.

We'll give you the opportunity to bring your own passion and experience to the course. We put an emphasis on sharing and discussing personal experiences in the online community to enrich our teaching.
