Course description
MA Inclusion and SEND
The MA Inclusion and SEND is a 3 year part-time course, offered by The Learning Institute in partnership with Newman University. It is designed for those who work in education with an interest in inclusion and special educational needs and disability.
This MA will enable students to develop and improve their knowledge and leadership skills, enhance their professional profile and engage in rigorous research and high level enquiry. Students are able to go onto study an extra module after their dissertation to achieve the National Award for SEN Coordination.
The MA can be delivered within a group of schools, or Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) to further develop Professional Mastery and Leadership across a team, ensuring research-based practice, a strong leadership pathway and succession planning.
Alternatively, individuals are welcome to study for an MA at our teaching venue in Roche, Cornwall.
