MEdu (in curriculum enhancement) with Qualified Teacher Status, MEd FullTime
One very positive thing to say about this course is that most of the staff are absolutely lovely - they cannot do enough for you and are evidently passionate in what they teach. Many of them care deeply for the students and create that bond of engendering trust. Their quality of content delivery is mostly good. Some modules have been a little confusing, and honestly stressful at times given mixed messages that have been recieved from staff - but their response to emails and willingness to communicate is something that has helped in these difficult periods. The facilities we have access to are fantastic, especially their range of children’s books for placement; and their placement organisation has been great with positive experiences. However, I have just finished my 2nd year and in the span of 2 years, I have had 3 personal tutors. Whilst one change was due to staff circumstances, which was totally acceptable, I feel as though the changes in the years is a bit frustrating. read more
