I really enjoyed the Educational Leadership and Policy course at Stanmore School of Business! The instructors were super knowledgeable and made the content really accessible. I loved how we got to work on case studies and group projects - it was so cool to see how the concepts we learned in class applied to real-life scenarios. One thing that really stood out to me was how the course helped me develop my critical thinking skills, especially when it came to analyzing educational policies and their impact on different stakeholders. The course materials were pretty good, but I wish there were more multimedia resources, like videos and podcasts. Still, I'd definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to learn more about educational leadership and policy.
