%X This research aimed to investigate the influence of transformational leadership style on university studentsĄ¯ learning motivation (i.e. educational learning facilities, flexible leadership approach, good curriculum standard, effective communication, and change management). The data for this paper was collected using non-probability sampling techniques from 120 university students in the UK, who provided insights into their schoolĄ¯s leadership and their learning motivation in the classroom. The data collected was validated by adopting KendallĄ¯s tau b, SpearmanĄ¯s rho, and descriptive analysis (i.e. mean and standard deviation) using SPSS Statistics. The Results from the findings revealed that perceived studentsĄ¯ motivation for change management and leaderĄ¯s responsibility was the transformational leadership style dimension identified by this study. The result reveals that there is a correlation between studentsĄ¯ motivation and change management through a transformational leadership approach that was identified. The research further showed that the transformational leadership approach in the educational sector improves students learning motivation and performance. Furthermore, this study elucidates the transformational leadership practices in UK universities to clearly understand how studentsĄ¯ learning motivation can be improved for greater academic achievement. It contributes to educational leadership/management studies by describing the correlation between transformational leadership and change management of educational leadership. Finally, this study contributes to educational leadership literature, especially within the UK, since limited studies have examined the influence of transformational leadership on studentsĄ¯ learning motivation. Thus, the study suggests that educational leaders should ensure that their curriculum standards, learning facilities, and student performance are often revisited.
