Why Reskill in Educational Leadership?

Education is a fast-evolving sector, one that requires change and leadership. If you’re a natural born leader, and are currently working as a teacher or other education professional, reskilling with a master’s in Educational Leadership could be for you.

At the University of Bolton, we provide a supportive and friendly learning environment for professionals returning to their studies, and always put our students first. We’ve also been voted No.1 in the North West for Student Satisfaction for the past three years (Complete University Guide in 2021, 2020 and 2019), so there’s nowhere better to enhance your skills for the workplace.

Here are three reasons why you should consider reskilling with us in January 2021, when our MA Educational Leadership course opens.

1. Reskill to stand out from the crowd
The education sector can be a challenging environment, and the supply and demand for certain management roles fluctuate over time. This means that it’s vital for those who wish to work in a leadership role to have a competitive skill set, as well as advanced knowledge of principles and theories that underpin educational leadership.
2. Schools, colleges and universities are under pressure
If you work as a teacher or lecturer, you will already know how much pressure teams are under to achieve greater successes, but with fewer resources. Great leadership is fundamental for increasing teacher retention, improving the student experience, and driving forward change within the education system, even when times are challenging. A master’s degree in Educational Leadership can help you develop the tools to innovate and lead the way, creating a positive culture for all.
3. Boost your employability with a top university
Reskilling with us isn’t just going to look good on your CV. We are career-focused from the start and our course leaders will work with you towards your personal and professional development goals. Our dedicated Employability Team is also here to support you as you transition back into the workplace, and will hopefully help you secure a job on completion of your course.
