Course summary

Overview
Education is a vital part of our lives and can help us understand the world around us. As such, it’s deeply important that education is inclusive, and that we can support learning for all. On UEA’s Education, Special Educational Needs, and Inclusion course, you’ll explore inclusive education through a range of lenses, including issues of disability, globalisation, equality, race, gender, language needs, and much more.

You’ll be taught by leading experts and practitioners, gaining the knowledge and skills you’ll need to ensure education is available for everyone. You will have sessions from experts in sociology, psychology, philosophy, art, media studies, and many other fields.

You’ll be able to shape the course to follow your own interests across a range of specialisations. You’ll explore art and creativity, the human brain, nature and outdoor learning, AI and digital technology, and so much more.

At our vibrant campus in the heart of Norwich, you’ll be able to take advantage of our facilities and links to the local area. Gain experience through practical placements, explore the stunning landscape of Norfolk, learn from museums and galleries like the Sainsbury Centre, and hear from local practitioners.

You’ll be supported towards a wide range of career pathways, focusing on careers and further study exploring issues of inclusivity, disability, and Special Educational Needs. This includes pathways of counselling, SEND teaching, therapy, educational psychology, and other roles supporting Special Educational Needs and inclusivity more broadly in a range of contexts and settings.
