Course summary

If you’re passionate about educating the next generation and helping children reach their potential, this course will develop your understanding of primary education, and give you the knowledge and skills to work collaboratively in a range of settings. If you’re looking for a career working with children aged 3-12 and their families, or you already work in education but want to learn more and progress your career, our BA (Hons) Primary Education Studies will give you a thorough understanding of classroom management, lesson planning, National Curriculum subjects, and the three Key Stages in primary education, as well as an insight into special educational needs provision. You needn’t be limited to primary school teaching, though. You might have your sights set on a career in the wider education sector, cultural institutions and NGOs, or related fields such as health and social work. On this degree course you’ll gain the knowledge and skills you need to work collaboratively in a range of settings.Your studies will focus on education history, policy and the way children are taught today, as well as the core subjects that all primary-aged pupils study: reading, writing, maths and science. You’ll become familiar with teaching approaches and how to make adjustments to suit learners of all abilities.Of course, anyone working with children and families knows that it’s important to support the ‘whole child’ and so, as well as looking at education and teaching, you'll explore related areas such as health, welfare, child psychology and children’s rights. You’ll also have opportunities to observe teaching in local schools. You can take our Primary Education Studies course as a three-year degree in Cambridge, Chelmsford or Peterborough, or as an accelerated degree, which you’ll complete in two years either on-campus or as blended learning (a mix of remote teaching and face-to-face sessions in Chelmsford).
