These discussions and "hotseats" relate to the whole MA Inclusive Education Programme- that is everyone on every module. Hotseats are where guests come into the programme for a short period to assist you in answering questions you may have.

The purpose is to discuss themes relevant to everyone in Inclusive Education and Postgraduate research. We want exchanges of information, and ideas about quality research and development to prepare you to construct excellent assignments.
