Our rigorous MA course offers a comprehensive multidisciplinary foundation in the comparative analysis of the intricate relationship between education, society, and communities. Through this course, you will gain a profound understanding of education policy and the political dynamics that shape it on an international level, including influential organisations like the OECD and the EU, as well as national governments across the UK, Europe, and southeast Asia. Designed for aspiring educators, policymakers, researchers, and development professionals, the MA prepares graduates to contribute meaningfully to educational transformation in an increasingly interconnected and globalised world. Focussing primarily on the developed world, you will delve into the politics driving educational reforms, assess their effects, and analyse their impact on economic growth, skill formation, and social inclusion.
With its strong comparative perspective, the course encourages you to look beyond national boundaries. You will engage with peers from diverse professional and cultural backgrounds, exchanging perspectives and experiences from around the world. In doing so, you will broaden your global outlook, deepen your intercultural understanding, and build an international network of future educators, policymakers, and change-makers.
