Master of Education (part time) (Taught)

Applicants are normally expected to hold a Bachelor’s degree or equivalent (FHEQ Level 6). While the undergraduate degree will normally be in music, it is not a requirement. At interview, you instead will need to satisfy the College that you have the necessary musical background and demonstrate potential to successfully complete the programme.
If your first language is not English, an IELTS score of 6.5 is normally required, with exceptions being at the discretion of the admissions panel; if you are continuing from previous RNCM programmes, no further IELTS will be required, and your ability would be assessed at interview.
A 1,000-word sample of writing, normally on music (which may be an excerpt from an existing piece of work you have written), using references, is required if your undergraduate degree was not undertaken at the College.
It is not possible to transfer from the MEd to any other PG programme, except for the named exit awards above.
The policies for Accreditation of Prior Learning (APL) and Disclosure and Barring Services (DBS) may be found in the Student Regulation Handbook. It may be possible, for example, to take credits from a PGCE toward the MEd degree.
