Overview

Drawing on perspectives from education, psychology, sociology and health, you will examine a range of social issues that risk disadvantaging the development, wellbeing and educational outcomes of children and young people.

Drawing upon real-world events and personal experiences, you will explore issues of social justice, children’s rights, inclusion and diversity (gender, LGBT+, race, ethnicity, social class, poverty, disability, mental health), childhood adversity, trauma and wellbeing. Attention is also given to how intersectionality connects to equity and outcomes for children and young people during this Education, Society and Globalisation programme offered by the University of Chester.

Career opportunities

Designed for those interested in working in a broad range of community sectors linked to supporting children, young people, families, or marginalised groups, including education, social/community care, and non-government organisations where issues of social justice, inclusion, equality, diversity and the wellbeing of children/young people are essential.
