Education (Educational Leadership) MEd

This MEd course is essential for all professionals working in an educational setting who want to move into a senior leadership post, whether working as a teacher or in a similar developmental role.

We will help you reflect critically on your professional development and your current practice, and you will be introduced to research methodology. You will also study the concept of leadership and its role within strategic development, organizational learning, and communities of practice.

You can tailor the educational experience to suit your own circumstances, working entirely online, at your own pace, and taking a break from studies if needed. You can choose to study for the full Master of Education award, or you can exit early with a PG Certificate or PG Diploma.
