The BA is ideal for those planning to specialise in Jewish Education or work in Jewish schools and is suitable for both recent school leavers and mature students. The degree is validated by Middlesex University and graduates will receive an official Middlesex award upon completion.
Students study at LSJS’ London campus for the part-time degree programme, which provides the flexibility of combining study with work, volunteering and/or family responsibilities. For students out of London, there is a Distance Learning option.
The four-year, part time, competitively priced degree course in Jewish Education teaches a variety of relevant areas including the unique nature of Jewish Schools and Jewish settings, how children develop and learn within those settings and catering for the diversities of learners in school. Students enrolling on the course will now also qualify for a government loan, making it even more accessible.
“Currently we have 30 students on our BA (Hons) degree programme”, said
Dr Helena Miller, Director of Degrees and Teacher Training Programmes, Senior Research Fellow. “This is a great degree to get if you’re planning on becoming a fully qualified teacher, or if you are interested in any career in Jewish Education. Teaching is a graduate career and with this degree, it is then a simple process to obtain your QTS (qualified teacher status).”
“The BA and the amazing support that we get at LSJS have had a huge impact on my personal growth as an educator, as well as helping with my confidence in the classroom and knowledge of the curriculum, ” said BA fourth-year student Cher Zairi.
“We are very proud of both our BA (Hons) and MA in Jewish Education”, said Joanne Greenaway, Chief Executive of LSJS. “All our students really benefit from our expert teaching staff who are exceptionally dedicated and supportive.”
