Education (Assessment) MA

Students who complete the MA Education (Assessment) are able to interrogate assessment from policy positions, practice-based, philosophical, historical and sociological perspectives. Our students learn to think critically, to engage with a range of assessment resources and understand principal concepts in educational assessment so they can engage effectively with policy and practice in assessment locally, nationally and globally. The programme helps to develop strong writing skills applicable to research, policy authorship and other roles in assessment organisations or educational settings.
