Become a more effective leader
Strong leadership impacts the success of a school through making a difference to its culture, the wellbeing of staff and the quality of learning.
The degree offers a principle-driven approach to successful leadership and aims to equip you with the leadership skills you need to efficiently lead a school with happy and productive staff and pupils.

Experience in a leadership role such as headship, deputy/assistant headship, head of department, head of year or head of house is also essential.
