LMU's second-year Education students bring with them the skills and knowledge gained in their first year of study, including research methods, policy analysis, inclusive education strategies, and resource development. They are confident in presentations, visual communication, content creation, and adapting learning materials. Students can support organisations with projects such as curriculum design, EAL/ESL resources, inclusion and SEND initiatives, policy research, and educational programme development, while gaining valuable professional experience.

Expected outcomes for students:

Students will apply their first-year knowledge in real-world contexts, strengthening their skills in research, content creation, curriculum design, and inclusive education. They will gain professional experience, improve confidence, and build a portfolio that supports their progression toward teacher training and other education careers.

Deliverables for employers:

Employers can expect practical outputs such as research summaries, policy briefs, lesson plans, adapted learning resources, workshop or programme materials, and contributions to inclusion, SEND, or EAL/ESL initiatives. Students may also provide support with presentations, mentoring, or group projects depending on the scope of the placement.
