The MA Education (Leadership) is a distinctive, evidence-focused Masters programme that develops capacity for leadership and expert practice in schools. This pathway is designed for those who want to make a difference through leadership that is focused on learning and school improvement.

The knowledge and experience gained from the programme will place you in an ideal position to inform school improvement and make a difference within your leadership context.
