Summer Leadership Series

We are delighted to bring our members a Summer Leadership Series. Leadership has been unbelievably challenging this year and so this series is designed to reflect, inspire and galvanise leaders for the next phase as schools adapt and move forward hopefully.

Although Zoom definitely has its drawbacks, one of the positives has been the fantastic range of speakers we have been able to introduce to our membership. Hopefully this series will help leaders reflect on lessons learned this year and build forward for an inspiring future!

Plan. Test. Reflect. with Mark Burns

Wednesday 19 May, Monday 28 June, Tuesday 14 September, Wednesday 20 October 2021, 9.00 am – 3.30 pm – £500 + VAT or 6 credits per person

Based on the work of Jenny Donohoo about collective teacher efficacy, this 4 session course works on the premise that the only way we can have long-term improved impact on the learning of children is through embedding teaching excellence in all that we do.  To ensure any new knowledge, attitudes and skills for teachers becomes an embedded habit, requires regular opportunities to discuss and analyse new approaches, apply and practise new strategies in the classroom, as well as the structured reflection time to unpick the impact and, where necessary, refine approaches further.

Thursday May 27 2021, 10.00 am – 3.30 pm – £200 + VAT or 4 credits per person

It’s hard to move a school from Requires Improvement to Good, but even harder to move a school from Good to Outstanding. In fact, there’s a high chance that a Good school will remain Good or slip down. Why is this? Sonia will explore the common problems faced when moving from a ‘good’ to a ‘great’ school; the key changes you need to make to enable a shift; and provide practical tips you can take away and use immediately.
