Whatever educational setting you work in, or aspire to work in, our MA Education with Leadership and Management offers the opportunity to apply educational leadership and management theory to practice and enhance your leadership, research and operational skills.

Leadership and management in education has never been more important. Enhance your professional knowledge through continuous development as a self-critical learner and collaborative participant in your own learning.

You’ll explore both national and international research in educational leadership and related fields, learn to reflect on the connections between theory, policy and practice, as well as carry out own project. We’ll support you in enhancing your critical thinking and creating sophisticated academic arguments.

With the opportunity to tailor your studies and carry out research to focus on your particular interests, you'll certainly find opportunities to link the new theories you learn with your everyday practice. By studying with us, you’ll learn to question and justify your everyday actions, increasing your own enjoyment and job satisfaction, as well as improving the pupil or student experience in your place of work. You’ll have the benefit of studying alongside other postgraduate students across our range of education courses, offering an enriched experience and the opportunity of greater networking.

Besides specialist tutors, who have a wealth of experience and expertise, you’ll benefit from guest lecturers. No prior experience in leadership and management is necessary for this course, although experience in these areas will afford a greater application and evaluation of the principles taught. Part of the assessment for this course requires reflection upon and analysis of a current place of work within a wider educational context, although this does not need to be your own.

Here at ARU, our nursing tutors will help you evaluate and develop your skills, and build on your theoretical knowledge of nursing.

On the practical side, you’ll use our state-of-the-art clinical skills laboratories that will give you an unparalleled opportunity to fine-tune your nursing skills. Our labs were designed in collaboration with the NHS. They simulate the experience of working in a UK hospital, and give you the chance to use sophisticated healthcare equipment.

As part of our nursing community in Chelmsford, you’ll learn through lectures, seminars and ‘action learning’ sets – where you’ll reflect with other students on the actions you’ve taken. Our student nurses really benefit from discussing and sharing their experiences in this way.
