Leadership & Governance
We have devised a leadership curriculum that details how we support the growth of our system leaders, headteachers, deputy headteachers, subject leaders, governors and trustees. In this area you can learn about our headteacher curriculum and programme of training for governors.
Headteacher curriculum
Our headteacher curriculum is available as an annual package. The core element of the package is 8 days of leadership training including a residential. We invite national speakers to our training and the whole programme is co-ordinated by Ofsted’s formal national trainer and curriculum leader.
Testimonials - what our headteachers said about the last residential:
'A really valuable opportunity to spend time together. It felt like a real privilege to be able take part and to have time to think and reflect.'
'I had time to reflect on my behaviours as a leader and to showcase my skills as a leader.'
Deputy headteacher curriculum.
Our deputy headteacher curriculum follows a similar design template to our headteachers but is tailored to focus on specific areas such as behaviour and interview skills. This curriculum is set out over 5 says and also includes a residential.
Testimonials - what our deputy headteachers said about their residential:
'A time to take a step back and reflect on the role we do, developing strong professional bonds and thinking hard about the strategic path we take.'
'I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to participate in a residential. Thank you so much for making this happen. What a truly amazing trust it is that we work in.'
Governors and Trustees
Over the last few years we have designed and delivered a suite of workshops to support governance. Workshops are designed with our governance ‘conception of quality’ in mind. We seek to support governors and trustees so that they can fulfil the three main purposes of their role:
-
Strategic leadership
-
Accountability and assurance
-
Strategic engagement
All of the training outlined in this area of our website can be accessed/commissioned by schools beyond our trust. Our prices are competitive and are available as a PDF on the college landing page.
