The MA Educational Leadership award is designed for professionals who want to enhance their careers through exploring the leadership of learning in their own context. We will encourage students to challenge traditional notions of 'leaders' and 'leadership' and explore relational, collaborative and democratic leadership models.

Through this programme you will:

• Develop and deepen your knowledge and understanding of issues relating to education practice through critical reflection, analysis and enquiry
• Develop your ability to critically analyse educational theory and how it links to practice
• Become a member of a supportive learning community and learn from professionals from a range of educational settings
• Become a successful practitioner researcher

The programme aims to equip students with the necessary knowledge, skills, and creative capacity to respond to a variety of leadership challenges faced in contemporary organisations. Studying Educational Leadership has helped graduates to build deeper awareness and confidence within practice dilemmas and to secure promotion with current employers or to take on new leadership roles in new contexts. The programme also enables students to progress on to doctoral study.
