Our BA (Hons) Education and Special Educational Needs, Disabilities and Inclusion programme equips you with the necessary skills, experience and knowledge needed to pursue a graduate career specialising in these fields. Blending theory with real-world application, it examines key topics such as dyslexia and dyscalculia, disability studies, inclusive practice, interventions and programmes, trauma-informed and whole school approaches, neurodiversity, and social and emotional wellbeing.

With opportunities for placements, real world projects, and hands-on experience in all years of study, graduates leave equipped to inspire change and change lives. It’s not just about understanding education—it’s about shaping its future and working with others to enhance life chances.
