The Foundation Degree in Teaching and Learning at Lincoln Bishop University is a flexible, work-based programme designed to fit around your professional life. Blending practical experience with live online teaching and occasional campus sessions, this course allows you to continue working or volunteering while you study. You’ll join real-time online classes twice a week and attend five in-person teaching days each year, giving you the best of both worlds, interactive learning and valuable face-to-face connections.Across the two-year programme, you’ll build on your existing experience with learners and apply it directly to your studies. In your first year, you’ll explore key learning principles to support your transition into higher education, and discover how your day-to-day practice links to important theoretical concepts. This will help you better understand the needs of learners and reflect on your own professional development. In your second year, you’ll dive into essential topics such as inclusion, equality, diversity, learning, and assessment, as well as different approaches to teaching (pedagogy) and reflective practice.Collaboration is at the heart of this degree. You’ll have the chance to work alongside students from related courses, such as early childhood and youth, broadening your perspective and deepening your understanding of supporting learners across a range of ages and settings. This collaborative approach will strengthen your skills and enhance your future career prospects.Our students come from a variety of backgrounds and work in settings including Early Years Foundation Stage classes, primary and secondary schools, further and adult education, and support-based roles such as special educational needs and disability (SEND). We welcome applicants from all these diverse contexts.This Foundation Degree is a recognised qualification that can open doors to new opportunities.
