Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Education Studies (with Professional Placement Year)

Program Overview

Bath Spa is a founding member of the British Education Studies Association (BESA), and was among the first universities to establish Education Studies as a degree subject in 1999. Since then, the School of Education has been influential in the development of the subject.

Education studies is about how people develop and learn, the nature of knowledge and critical ways of knowing. As a student, you’ll analyse educational processes and their cultural, social, political and historical contexts, and gain perspectives on economic relationships, globalization, international education, ecological issues and human rights. Education studies also deals with beliefs, values and principles in education and the way that they change over time.

Education studies provide a sound basis of critical analysis, preparing you for a variety of professional career routes in education.

You’ll gain knowledge and understanding of:

  • The core disciplines that contribute to the study of education: history, philosophy, psychology and sociology
  • The diversity of learners and the complexities of the learning process;
  • The development of schooling, teaching and education policy in the UK and internationally;
  • The wider economic, political and socio-cultural contexts of education
  • Enquiry methods used in education;
  • Career options across the education sector

You’ll gain first-hand experience of the education sector through the professional placement module in your second year. This is designed to help formulate your career identity and professional development needs. You’ll further learn how to present your ideas confidently in a variety of ways, know how digital technology is used for various learning and professional purposes and to work both collaboratively and independently.

Professional Placement Year

This optional placement year provides you with the opportunity to identify, apply for, and secure professional experience, normally comprising one to three placements over a minimum of nine months. Successful completion of this module will demonstrate your ability to secure and sustain graduate-level employment.

By completing the module, you'll be entitled to the addition of 'with Professional Placement Year' to your degree title.
