Course Overview
The MA Special Educational Needs at University of East London is a postgraduate programme designed for postgraduate students passionate about understanding society. Based in Stratford, England, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 1-year full-time and part-time structure. The 2015 Special Educational Needs and Disability Code of Practice (DfE/DoH) specifies that all teachers must be seen as teachers of pupils with SEN and take responsibility for the progress of all learners in their class. With an estimated 20 per cent of our young people in school with special educational needs, it is important for teachers to have access to current research and to develop their understanding and confidence in this area. The MA in Special Educational Needs is designed to critically engage with current thinking and ideas about inclusive and specialist education. A minimum ielts score of 7.0 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 75% student satisfaction rating, a 85% continuation rate, and 88% of graduates in employment or further study.
