Education (Wales): Equity in Education
You are viewing this course for September start 2023
The National MA Education (Wales): Equity in Education at Aberystwyth University is a truly transformative and sector leading programme for educational professionals in Wales, from early career teachers to senior leaders with an interest in promoting equity and looking at ways to support pupils and students who are affected by aspects of inequity.
The National MA Education (Wales): Equity in Education pathway comes at a critical point in terms of educational policy and practice in Wales. The Education Minister’s call for radical action for an equitable education system for all requires collaboration across Wales’s education settings to consider what works, to learn from action and practice, both from established practice and from new ideas and thoughts.
The MA Education (Wales): Equity in Education programme, which has been collaboratively developed by seven universities in Wales, through direct engagement with a variety of key stakeholders including Welsh Government, will ensure that all education professionals in Wales have the same high-quality opportunity to actively engage with current research to improve their practice but also to challenge and reflect upon their thinking and mindset, and improve their professional practice.
In this programme, students will choose specialist modules in the area of equity in education.
