Inclusion for Learning

Programme Overview

The Inclusion for Learning module aims to equip the participant with a knowledge and understanding of the development of inclusion, nationally and internationally, considering current legislation, policy and practice. The participant will critically analyse the concept of inclusion with emphasis on theories and models of good practice and examine the concept of inclusion in the context of professional practice. The participant will demonstrate the skills, understanding and attitudes of the ‘reflective practitioner’ and will be able to critically appraise the role of advisor, consultant and manager of the learning environment. The module is delivered using online components as well as face-to-face workshops.

Please Note: We will not be accepting new applications for this module for the 2024-2025 academic year as the current module structure is undergoing a redesign. Applications will open for the 2025-2026 academic year when the new module has been developed. We will advertise the new programme in 2025 on our website and we look forward to welcoming new students for September 2025.

Requirements and Assessment

Continuous assessment will apply throughout the module. It will combine coursework on relevant aspects of Special Educational Needs with e-tivities, discussion boards, portfolio/project-based learning, literature reviews and case studies, which will be carried out within an appropriate educational context during the academic year. The concept of the ‘reflective practitioner’ will be a basic criterion permeating all forms of assessment.
