We have received the report of the External Examiner for our Newman University M.A. programme in Theology and Transformative Practice, and are very pleased with her assessment of the strengths of the Foundation’s work.  She noted a number of areas for commendation, including the depth and clarity of feedback given to students, the relevance and breadth of modules for those seeking to develop as reflective practitioners, and the intentional nurturing of those students with potential for doctoral work.

She concluded:

‘The programme continues to improve and the cohorts appear to respond to the good levels of specialist and ecumenical engagement. The Queen’s team is clearly at the cutting edge of the theological landscape and they are responsive to student need…the team offers a good example of thoughtful and reflective practice in responding to student needs and provoking them to develop and achieve the best possible outcomes. The progressive nature of the learning and the topics selected also offer insight into key issues for 21st century church and society.’
