Education

Overview

In this Education programme at Bishop Grosseteste University you will explore the intersections between policy and practice and meet others who share your commitment and critical engagement with educational ideas.

There are five modules, designed to be flexible and allow you to interpret the assignments in ways that will adapt to your current professional role and enable you to articulate your personal learning agenda. Module leaders will help you to use the academic literature to formulate key research questions to guide your work, extend your thinking and encourage reflection on your professional context.
