I’m a primary teacher interested in studying psychology and then possibly taking it further into educational psychology or another field. What courses would be suitable where you could study part-time and continue teaching. Are there online courses where there is little or no travelling involved. I am Clare based and would prefer not to have to travel long distances.

If anyone has experience of making the transition from teaching to psychology, I would be grateful to hear how challenging or workable it is.

Thanks
