The School of Education is a leading centre for educational research and research-informed teaching, offering world class campus and distance learning programmes. We are a dynamic and diverse School committed to understanding and improving learning at every stage of life and in all contexts, from communities and families to schools, further and higher education institutions and public sector organisations.

We are recognised nationally and internationally for our world class research  and our expert knowledge of education is enhanced by international perspectives contributed by our staff, students and research collaborations.

The School has an excellent track record of developing fruitful local, national and international collaborations with practitioners, schools, policy-makers and academic colleagues. The School works in collaboration with schools across the East Midlands, and is part of the College of Social Science.
