School of Education

At the School of Education, we believe in the transformative power of education to change lives, create opportunities, and build stronger communities. Rooted in a commitment to social justice, we foster a dynamic and inclusive environment where every individual is valued, supported, and empowered to reach their full potential.

This ethos shapes everything we do, from the way we teach and research to the partnerships we build, working closely with local, regional, and global organisations to inspire and develop the next generation of educators, leaders, and changemakers who are equipped to make a meaningful difference in the world.

When we set up our School-led programme we wanted to work with a university partner who shared and supported our aims of working creatively and flexibly, to provide the highest quality training. We found exactly what we wanted in the team at LJMU.
