About University of Brigant

Historic UK university (founded 1883) with Edinburgh campus and tuition-free online degrees.

Overview

This MA is for people already working in schools, colleges, youth work, or learning support who need education studies without a teacher-training fiction. University of Brigant will not sell QTS. Edinburgh campus or tuition-free online, one standard, designed around in-post timetables. You will inquire into curriculum, assessment, and inclusion as a practitioner-researcher, with Scottish and rUK policy literacy, not as a PGCE substitute. Identity-checked assessment. Capstones use your workplace (anonymised) or a documented education setting. Dual pathway means an in-post teacher in the Highlands sits the same demand as an Edinburgh evening attender, without a lighter marking scheme dressed up as ‘flexibility’.

Delivered fully online with live seminars, recorded lectures, and tutor support.
