FACULTY FOCUS:

Education

Dear UK Marketing,

In this faculty focus, we will be doing a deep-dive on all things education at the University of Plymouth, including important updates to the MA Education application process, MA Education January start, and employability opportunities.

Plymouth Institute of Education

Plymouth Institute of Education, within the School of Society and Culture, works with a range of partners to offer high quality research, undergraduate and postgraduate programmes.

New programmes at undergraduate level include a 2-year fast track Primary Education), and at postgraduate level, our MA Education now has the option for a January start.

MA Education

Our MA Education allows students to delve into research and educational theory, as well as offering optional modules in areas such as inclusive education and sustainability.

There are opportunities to visit different educational settings and the team also encourage volunteering. There will be a school visit programme for the new cohort.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

The University is no longer requiring applicants to complete the supplementary form when applying for the MA Education.

However, this guidance may still be helpful for the main application form.

We will also now be considering 2:2s in our applications.

Employability

MA Education students are well-placed to submit applications to the government's apprenticeship scheme, where they qualify for Qualified Teacher Status by working in a paid role at a school.

Doing the MA Education means students can evidence knowledge of the UK education system. Our programme of school visits also introduces students to local schools - currently the Mayflower School in Plymouth has a former international student now working for them through that scheme. The University can also assist students to secure part-time work as Teaching Assistants in local schools.

Many MA Education graduates return to their home countries, as they are already qualified teachers, and complete the MA Education to enhance their promotion prospects.

“Exposure to a new educational system has expanded my academic horizons. I’ve gained insights from a different pedagogical approach and collaborated with professors and students from diverse backgrounds. This cross-cultural exchange has enriched my knowledge and ensured a well-rounded education that extends beyond textbooks.”

Joslin – MA Education student from India

“Personally, I am attracted to the University's strong academic programmes and supportive community atmosphere. The opportunity for hands-on learning and research, combined with the University's location in a beautiful coastal city, offers a unique and enriching experience.”

Amina – MA Education student from Nigeria

Please note our Education courses do not lead to Qualified Teaching Status (QTS), but are designed to enable students to conduct research and enrich their understanding of educational theory and practice to facilitate a strong foundation for educational leadership.

If you have any questions relating to Education, or would like to request any agent training for this or anything else within the Faculty of Arts, Humanities & Business, then do get in touch international@plymouth.ac.uk.
