Excellence in Leadership,
Excellence in Schools
During our eight webinars ‘Excellence in Leadership, Excellence in Schools’, Our expert will guide you through the key areas of effective and impactful leadership: using current research, Quality Assurance protocols; and a breadth of personal experience. Each webinar will introduce relevant new learning, explore models of effective practice linked to Quality Assurance expectations; and apply everything learned to your own school context.
Workshop 1: What makes an excellent school leader – This workshop will explore how situational leadership models (adapting your style to both context and demands) can be used to lead with knowledge, impact, and humility. Using research, models of good practice and participants’ experience, this workshop will empower leaders at all levels to lead better and lead more effectively.
Workshop 2: Leading learning and teaching for engagement and motivation – What engages students to learn well? How can we lead our teachers to be more motivating and inspiring in their classrooms? This workshop will explore highly effective strategies to enable us all to lead teaching and learning across our schools so that our students are excited, motivated, and engaged by our teachers and their grades improve.
Workshop 3: The gentle leader – The absolute best leaders are knowledgeable, skilled, humble, and compassionate. This workshop explores how we can all ‘lead gently’ to motivate and engage our school staff and encourage them to get the absolute best results from our students.
Workshop 4: Leading our teams – A school is only as good as the teams within it. This workshop uses research and theory on team leadership to give school leaders a real insight into how to lead and manage their teams effectively.
Workshop 5: Data tips and tricks – During this workshop we will explore simple yet effective strategies to help school leaders engage more effectively with data – RAG monitoring, Effect Quotients, historical analysis, cohort analysis and target setting strategies will all be explored in this 90-minute workshop.
Workshop 6: Leading the principles of instruction – There are theories of how our students learn that all teachers should know but many do not. This workshop will explore how Rosenshein’s ‘principles of instruction’ need to be at the heart of the leadership of all good teaching and learning in any school.
Workshop7: Managing behaviour – We can only manage the behaviour of others by changing the way we behave. This workshop will give school leaders at every level the tools and techniques to look at what motivates challenging behaviours and how we can change our own leadership actions to resolve situations professionally and positively.
Workshop 8: Sustainable leadership and completing evidence portfolios – Building on our work for impact into the year ahead and beyond.
Each participant will receive a comprehensive resource pack for each webinar and, on successful completion of all ten webinars and the submission of an evidence of impact portfolio, participants will receive a ‘certificate of excellent leadership’.
