This course is offered on a part-time basis, for one or two years, to enable study alongside employment. Prior learning from a PGCE is fully recognised, reducing the number of credits and time required to gain the full Master’s degree.
We regularly review our course content, to make it relevant and current for the benefit of our students. For these reasons, course modules may be updated.
