Special Educational Needs and Inclusion MA Welcome Pack

Welcome to Special Educational Needs and Inclusion MA and Special Educational Needs and Inclusion (Autism Pathway) MA 2024.

​​​The MA SENI programme is for those wishing to deepen their knowledge, practice, and professional skills in the field of inclusion. We will be covering a range of topics in our modules such as inclusive perspectives, understanding autism and challenging behaviour, Social Emotional and Mental Health as well as nurturing approaches for individuals with additional needs.

​The programme equips students with skills that can be applied in various professional contexts. The rich curriculum, therefore, is the strength of our programme; content draws upon the most recent evidenced-based research methods, ethics, policy and practice for inclusion, and the needs of individuals at the heart of change.

​MA SENI modules are informed by up-to-date international and local levels of application. The MA student, therefore, is actively engaged in learning, teaching and research with a view to becoming leaders in the work context.​
