The part-time Primary Education route is intended for education professionals, policymakers and researchers at any stage of their career. Many students have relevant international experience and interests. We aim to fuse research and theoretical understandings about primary or elementary education with current priorities in policy and practice.
To apply to finish your Masters through the PGCEM route you will have already completed the Postgraduate Certificate Education (PGCE) at the Faculty of Education. You will then join the Primary Education route for your second year of study. On the Primary Education Masters course you will have the opportunity to: enhance your educational understanding and practice through critical reflection, study and research;
critically engage with the best quality national and international educational research that has relevance to primary education; carry out an individual and collaborative critical enquiry into significant educational issues and practice; and develop your thinking in order to contribute to informed policy and practice analysis and improvement in the primary phase and your own work setting. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
