Modules will be delivered by synchronous online lectures over two hours at evening  time, with some onsite activities organised outside of normal working hours, such as on Saturdays.  For those unable to attend onsite, recordings of the inputs will be made available.
The aim of this programme is to bring together two strands of postgraduate education for teachers which, traditionally have been offered very separately.  It aims to combine the development of leadership skills with the enhancement of an inclusive mindset for aspiring school leaders.   It aims to place the organisational aspects of inclusive education at the centre of organisational development and, hence, school development. It aims to place the effective inclusion of pupils, who are potentially vulnerable to exclusion, at the centre of overall school effectiveness.  Such vulnerability can arise on the grounds of (dis)ability, or social, cultural or linguistic backgrounds or other minority status.
It aims to familiarise students with the latest national and international research in relation to Leadership Education and Inclusive Education.
