Practitioner enquiry works with school improvement, teachers' professional development and educational innovation.

There is a general pathway and a leadership pathway. The leadership pathway requires you to focus on modules and a dissertation.

Course participants come from across educational phases, early years to HE. They also come from educational sectors such as:

  • schools
  • museums
  • colleges
  • universities
  • educational consultancies.

This diversity helps create a supportive learning environment. You'll learn from each other as well as from the course leaders.
