Middlesex University and Real Training are reviewing the programme which is due for re-validation in December 2022. We have decided we are likely to be making changes to the programme and we had hoped to bring forward the re-validation to November 2021. However due to the impact of the pandemic on our capacity we cannot now bring forward this re-validation and we will therefore consult and plan for updates and a probable re-validation in December 2022.
Given that we now know there are likely to be changes we have therefore decided that it is in the best interests of potential delegates that we do not take on new people. We have therefore decided to suspend new enrolments onto the programme. This means that unfortunately we will not be able to enrol new delegates onto the 15 October 2021 cohort.
Delegates who have joined the programme will continue to be fully supported by Middlesex University and Real Training to complete their studies. We will consult current delegates who are also Middlesex University students, about any changes or proposed improvements to the programme.
Ron Sergejev has 35 years experience in secondary schools in North London and Hertfordshire, many of them spent senior leadership positions. He currently works at Middlesex University as a Programme Leader for various Masters programmes and is also module leader for some undergraduate programmes and Initial Teacher Training.
The Communities and Cultures module develops the student’s knowledge and understanding of cultural and community influence on pupils, families and their ensuing relationship with the educational setting.
The module gives the student the opportunity to focus on the issues of most relevance to their setting, while also increasing their knowledge of theoretical perspectives on multiculturalism, identity, and community.
The range of cultures and communities relevant to each student on this module will vary according to the context of their practice but could include those groups related to ethnicity, religion, sexuality, socio-economic or political as well as alternative or online communities.
The Communities and Cultures 30 credits module will equip the student with knowledge relevant to the variety of cultures and different communities related to their setting, an understanding of the provisions and community resources available to them in their practice, as well as establishing a plan for leading their setting towards a cohesive approach to multiculturalism and community settings.
On completion of the Communities and Cultures online module, the successful student will be able to:

Module strands are designed to support the learner through the subject area:
Assessment is through three coursework assignments covering the learning outcomes and will consist of the following (numbers in brackets refer to learning outcomes assessed):
This assignment requires the student to gather existing information, guidance, legislation, research and data, to critically appraise or analyse it and present their conclusions.
Provision and Intervention: a critical review of how different cultural and community groups
experience your setting and how local provision is used to enhance the learning experience.
This assignment requires the student to gather information on their own or others’ practice, to review the basis of that practice and to critique it in the light of available theory.
Reflections on this module: a review of knowledge gained, perspectives changed and a plan for practice development.
This assignment requires the delegate to reflect on their practice as they progress through the module, as well as on specific tasks or interventions they have observed or implemented. They will be expected to have made regular reflective notes as they progress, and to be able to critique these in the light of recent research on critical thinking and reflective practice.
You will need one to take this module.
You will get the most out of the Communities and Cultures online module if you work in an education setting with children, young people or adults.
You will need to get written permission from a senior member of staff to regularly access a setting. We will show you the best way to do this, enabling you to carry out our learning activities in your chosen setting.
As part of this process, you will also need to complete a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. Visit GOV.UK for more information.
The Communities and Cultures course is available online and can therefore be completed anywhere in the world. Please click here for advice on payment options and other information relevant to those studying outside of the UK.
