Gaelic Education MEd

This MEd Gaelic Education is delivered entirely through the medium of Gaelic, allowing you to develop your literacy skills in Gaelic while at the same time progressing your professional knowledge, understanding and skills relating to Gaelic education.

You will focus on the following areas in your studies:
+ Immersion pedagogy and best practice in international immersion education
+ Research, policy and practice in Gaelic medium education
+ Developing pupils’ Gaelic language proficiency
+ Developing participants’ own confidence and competence in Gaelic, including understanding and use of Gaelic grammar

The programme is comprised of progressive modules that allow you to continually build upon prior learning. This culminates in a final practitioner enquiry study, designed to enable you to utilise the knowledge, skills and professional understanding that you have developed throughout the programme to support improvement in your own setting.
