Course content

Education is constantly under pressure to conform outside requirements. Standardisation and teach to test is all part of the Global Education Reform Movement that is sweeping the globe, steering policy and pressuring educational leaders. This course equips participants with the critical thinking skills and knowledge needed to engage at a higher level. This introduces intellectual and practical confidence in all interactions, whether with teachers, parents, students, managers, board members or even policy makers.

Educational Leaders require a wide range of transferable skills and subject-specific knowledge. The MA in Educational Leadership in Practice equips you with the critical approach to be the positive change your educational organisation needs.
