This course takes a critical approach to currently popularised notions of what constitutes ?leadership?, who educational ?leaders? are and what they do to achieve results with and through other professionals working in or connected with, educational organisations broadly defined. The course will equip you with the knowledge and capabilities needed for informal leadership and for a range of promoted posts, from subject leader, through deputy head teacher and head teacher, to senior leadership roles within local and national and international educational organisations. The MEd is studied part-time over three years. Each module is taught over a weekend, Friday to Sunday, and supported through web-based materials and email guidance from your tutors. You will be assessed through written coursework and project-based assignments. These link theoretical concepts to your professional practice within your own workplace, so you will be studying what you do in your individual context and seeking to improve it for the benefit of your students. If you have an NPQH certificate, you may claim 60 credits at Masters Level towards a Diploma or MEd in Educational Leadership upon completion of an academic bridging assignment designed to help you with the transition to postgraduate work. If you are already in a leadership or management role within the education sector, or you are seeking promotion into such a role in the near future, the course leader can help you discover if this is the course for you. There are alternative routes to the modules. These are the intensive Work Based Learning (WBL) route, available to school groups only and is taught and supported in the school, and the fast track Advanced Practitioner Pathway (APP) which has an exclusively oral examination based on core and elective reading.
