Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
A course like this normally moves from foundations in how children learn and develop, through curriculum planning and assessment, to specialist options and sustained school placements. You'll usually begin with observation and supported teaching in your first year, progressing to increased classroom responsibility in year two. The core curriculum covers child development from birth through adolescence, how schooling is organised, and teaching across core subjects. You'll study inclusion and support for learners with special educational needs and disabilities. In the later stages, you can specialise in areas such as primary teaching, early years, SEND and inclusion, education policy, and QTS routes. School placements are integrated throughout, building toward final assessed teaching practice and, where relevant, Teachers' Standards assessment for qualified teacher status.
Who it's for
This degree suits you if you're drawn to teaching, community engagement, or curriculum development, particularly within Jewish contexts, and want to ground your practice in rigorous study. You'll thrive if you're intellectually curious about educational theory, comfortable with both reading widely and reflecting critically on practice, and interested in how belief, culture, and pedagogy intersect. The part-time structure appeals to those balancing study with work or family commitments, or who prefer a flexible pace. You should be prepared for sustained independent work, including a substantial research project.

International students
What applying to LSJS from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is set per course by LSJS; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
This course lists IELTS at level 6. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check LSJS’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with LSJS and gov.uk before you apply.
