Location of Oxford Brookes University
The National Society for Education in Art and Design’s Artist Teacher Scheme programme is based on the central belief that teachers of art, design and craft across all sectors who maintain and develop their own creative practice can be significantly more effective in the classroom or studio and more likely to be satisfied with their work in education. The scheme provides opportunities for artist teachers to review and develop their personal creative practice in relation to the highest levels of contemporary practice in the contexts of higher education institutions and art museums and galleries.

The arts based route through the MA in Education provides an opportunity for artist educators to explore your professional identity in depth through practice based research in an educational setting. The first year aligns with the national Artist Teacher Scheme, organised by The NSEAD, and is run in partnership with Modern Art Oxford. This format allows you the opportunity to engage with wide range of professionals working in arts education, gallery education and with artist practitioners in a range of settings. The second and third years build on this structure to engage you in the exploration of how you locate yourself as an artist educator in your professional settings, encouraging the production of visual practice as research methodology. One unique feature of the full MA route is the opportunity to submit a final thesis as a major project where the outcome can be presented as 50% written component and 50% visual practice.
