Admissions
Formal applications will need to be submitted to the Graduate Admissions Office, giving course code 003181. You can find details on applying on the University website, Postgraduate Courses. Please ensure you read the notes of guidance provided by Graduate Admissions as this will give you information on how to submit your supporting documentation.
Please also read the FAQs available on these MSc Learning and Teaching web pages as, among other things, they provide guidance on referees and the statement of purpose you will need to include with your application. You should also provide a transcript of your teacher training course rather than your undergraduate course.
For further guidance on the admissions process or to ask any questions about the course, please contact Debra McKenna (Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday pm only) or Louise Gully, on msc.learnandteach@education.ox.ac.uk or telephone 01865 274021.
