Course Summary

The MA Education, Ethics and Leadership is part of a suite of 3 routes for those with a continuing interest in developing their theory and practice in the field of educational leadership. Through this MA you will share sessions with those on the MA Education and MA Inclusive Education. This will support you to develop your understanding of different perspectives, developing your practice and critical thinking as you explore a range of key areas related to an ethical approach to leadership in education.

The range of modules which form this MA Education, Ethics and Leadership route will enable you to focus and specialise, with choices built into the assessment requirements. The curriculum reflects the latest developments in education and is delivered by a team of dedicated and experienced teaching staff with specialist areas of expertise, who are all also involved in researching and publishing within the area.

Youll develop a deep critical understanding of how leadership and its intersection with ethics, is applied to educational settings. The course is designed to explore how we lead people and organisations from multiple perspectives – such as psychology, sociology, management and organisational theory. You will explore this through a range of modules which focus on topics such as approaches to leadership, pedagogy, ethics in education, sustainability, as well as approaches to educational research.

Modules

Change and Influence in Ethical Educational Leadership (ME7310)

Change is common construct within educational leadership. The purpose of education is to support individuals in changing they interact with the world around them. Indeed, educational institutions find themselves in constant state of policy and organisational flux. The study of change, and how we seek to influence individuals and organisations through this process, is therefore critical. In this module, we will explore the notion of change and influence at individual, team and organisational levels within educational organisations. A broad range of disciplines will be introduced to support students in analysing and critiquing common narratives within change. Students will continue to advance their understanding of the links between educational leadership and ethics and moral philosophy. This module will build on the foundations of Module ME7302, Ethics for Educators, by looking to attempts to provide ethical guidance when confronted with the rise in modernism and subsequent postmodernism and a decline in moral certainties. At regular intervals, students will be invited to use their growing understanding of the two disciplines to analyse and critique the narratives and assumptions underpinning popular models of organisational and individual change.
