Thank you for the clarity and honesty - this was time well spent and moved my thinking forward. Really good food for thought and very insightful. I thought all these points made me reflect on important parts of school life and it helped me to reaffirm what I am doing, correct where I’m getting it wrong and give ideas of possible future vision/pathways.

Covering a wide selection of topics including Strategic Improvement, Curriculum, SEND, Safeguarding & Mental Health, CE Schools & SIAMs, HR and Data Protection, our professional development provision offers high quality training coupled with exceptional value for money. As with our Leadership, ECT Training, Teaching RE and Race, Identity & School Leadership programmes, all are specialist led and incorporate current recommendations and accepted good practice to ensure stimulating and inspiring sessions for all participants.

In this programme, participants will develop the skills and knowledge needed to lead a successful school and have the opportunity to share day-to-day experiences with other participants and experienced headteachers. In addition to the six training days, participants will have the valuable experience to work-shadow a headteacher in their chosen context.

A range of themes will be covered, including:

Strategic Focus

Finance & Planning
