Scotland is an inspiring location in which to study politics. An independent country until the Act of Union in 1707, debates still rage about whether it should remain part of the United Kingdom, and how the Scottish role in British history should be considered. Using Scotland as an example, there is lots to discuss, from the implications of colonialism to the circumstances under which a country should become independent.
What’s more, Scotland is notable for a history of strong and remarkable leaders, offering plenty of case studies for our students here to consider. You can compare the experience of Scotland in Politics and Leadership to that of your own country, and those of your fellow students, who will be joining us from all over the world. They will benefit from sharing your experiences and opinions, just as you’ll learn from them in turn.
At Oxford Royale Academy’s Politics and Leadership Summer School you will learn alongside students from all over the world, as well as have the opportunity to explore questions about different political systems, approaches to leadership, and ethics in politics. What’s more, you can learn what it takes to be successful in the world of politics and leadership, and what routes you might need to take in order to become a leader of the future.
