Teaching, Learning and Mentoring Practice - Edge Hill University

BA (Hons) Teaching, Learning and Mentoring Practice
The degree in Teaching, Learning and Mentoring Practice provides an
opportunity for teaching assistants and support staff to build upon their skills
and knowledge in the field of primary or secondary education.
Pathway A is intended for those who want to develop their professional work
within the wider Children’s workforce. Pathway B is for primary support staff
considering QTS and wish to develop more specialist knowledge in this area
and Pathway C is intended for secondary support staff considering QTS in
Secondary ICT.
This is a four year, part-time degree that enables students to engage in workbased
learning. It offers wider participation, flexible learning and is a valuable
qualification in its own right. Part-time Students may exit this degree at the
end of level 5 with the award of a foundation degree or may transfer to one of
the QTS programmes, subject to interview/ availability.
Students on the current degree have appreciated the way in which the
programme fits in with family life and work commitments. They comment that,
in addition to developing knowledge and essential skills, the programme has
given them confidence and has helped them to understand their supporting
roles and responsibilities in working alongside their peers, teachers and
pupils.
