The Special Educational Needs course will help you advocate for disability rights and equality in your career. Over 16 million disabled people live in the UK. Graduates skilled in special educational needs and disability are in demand. They are needed in education, health, social work, and business. This degree values the contributions of disabled people and encourages you to focus on knowledge instead of just needs.

A supportive team of both disabled and non-disabled academics will help you gain skills, knowledge, and confidence to lead in this field. You will learn about the historical, social, and cultural factors that shape our views on special educational needs and disability. Activities will enhance your grasp of academic theories. They will also demonstrate how to use this knowledge in real-world situations. The course benefits from the tutors’ strong professional backgrounds. It also includes insights from guest speakers and partner organisations. These include disabled-led groups, education and care providers, charities, and disability arts organisations.
