The HertsCam MEd
Leading Teaching and Learning HertsCam is now inviting expressions of interest and applications for the MEd starting in September 2019. This masters degree programme supports teachers and other education professionals in their leadership of development work in schools in order to improve the quality of teaching and learning. The 2 year part-time course is both practical and critical, leading to tangible improvements in educational practice and advancements in professional knowledge. The key concept underpinning the approach is ‘teacher-led development work’. You can access a paper explaining this approach in the Publications section of this site.
