Overview
What impact does emotional wellbeing have on a young person's learning? How can psychological theory be applied to support learners in a range of educational contexts? This course explores these questions and more. Designed to help you develop your skills to help you get ahead in learner support, counselling, mentoring, educational psychology and more, our Education with Psychology BA(Hons) is a recognised progression route to primary and lifelong learning (post-14) teacher training. The course structure enables you to choose from a wide range of modules, giving you the opportunity to develop your interests. The benefit of taking Education with Psychology is that you’ll explore social sciences too, to develop vital psychology skills; the psychological element of the course is designed to help unlock your potential, by discovering and understanding people’s needs. You’ll be taught alongside students on other courses in education and social sciences, too, allowing for an enriched learning experience in both subject areas. In the summer term of your first or second year, you’ll be encouraged and supported to undertake voluntary work experience to contextualise your learning. There's an option module in the second year called Psychology and the World of Work – and if you take this module, you'll complete a work placement and reflect on your experience to support your future career progression.
