MEd, PGDip, PGCert Master of Education by flexible learning

... United Kingdom
... University of Leicester

Course Overview

The MEd is designed for qualified teachers and other educational professionals working in various contexts and age phases. This degree will enable you to:

Enhance your opportunities for career progression and make a difference with a deeper understanding of effective pedagogy

Critically examine your academic practice and expertise in teaching

Choose an optional module of interest or to advance a specialism

Develop your ability to design and carry out small-scale research projects.

The offered modules will enable practitioners working in educational contexts to engage in pedagogically-focused study and research on critical cross-curricular topics that reflect and explore the issues and challenges they face across the 5-19 age range. These topics are inclusive practices; mentoring, coaching, and development of practical leadership skills; mental health, and well-being. The course has been developed following consultation with the University of Leicester Partnership schools and PGCE alums.

Alongside these modules, this course will provide an introduction to reflective practice (for those experienced teachers without Masters's credits) and a solid grounding in practitioner research methods for all who enroll. The Practitioner Research Methods module will prepare you for researching and writing a dissertation on a topic of your choice relevant to the educational context in which you work.

General Eligibility

An honors degree (minimum 2:2 classification) plus teaching qualification (this would normally be the PGCE with 60 credits, taken within the past five years).

All graduate teachers with a minimum of 2:2 will be eligible.

All students will be required to meet the standard language requirement with an A-C GCSE grade/level 4 in English.
