Key Summary
Introduction
The online Master of Education (MEd) in Educational Management is relevant to anyone involved in the formal or informal education sector.
The range of modules will add value to previous learning and provide conceptual and theoretical frameworks to make sense of and review practices. While the programme is globally informed, you will be expected to interrogate imported information in the light of your local contextual knowledge and practice with the intention of finding your own educational management voice. In short, the programme is designed to raise questions, stimulate critical thought and support reflective professional practice.
Please Note: This programme is specifically aimed at qualified teachers and education managers holding a BEd Honours degree.
During the selection process, the programme coordinator and/or head of department (HOD) will consider the career history of applicants.
