Overview
This intellectually challenging and thought-provoking Special Education Online (Hons) course from University of East London is now offered online via our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), Moodle. The course takes you on a fascinating journey through this complex area. You'll learn about every aspect of the subject in line with government policy, including autism, speech, language and communication, challenging behaviour, disabilities, dyslexia, therapeutic teaching and learning, as well as alternative educational provisions.
You'll develop a reflective approach to special education and critical thinking skills that are transferable to the workplace. You'll have access to our online student community and discussion forums so you can work with the other online students to discuss and resolve issues related to your studies.
We'll give you the opportunity to bring your own passion and experience to the course. We put an emphasis on sharing and discussing personal experiences in the online community to enrich our teaching.
Your future career
There's an increasing demand for skills in Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND) and 75 per cent of our Special Education graduates go on to work or study in this field.
Of these, 61 per cent go into caring and personal service occupations, while 18 per cent move into professional or managerial positions.
Our teaching team's strong relationship with local schools, SEND organisations and loyal alumni means you'll have plenty of contact on the course with potential employers through work placements, mentoring, careers fairs and guest lecturers.
As a graduate of this course you could apply to train as a teacher, for example via a Postgraduate Certificate of Education (PGCE) course. The University of East London offers PGCEs specialising in SEND in primary education and a number of secondary subjects. Our staff are readily available to support you and give you advice.
Alternatively, you might consider working within the public and private sectors as a teaching assistant in a school, or train as a speech and language therapist, occupational therapist, social worker or in the wider caring industry.
