The Senior Education Leadership programme offers a unique opportunity for you as a senior leader to develop your skills, knowledge and understanding of how to lead in education contexts successfully, with the aim to drive effective improvement within an educational setting.

There are ever-increasing growing demands on school leaders, reflecting increased expectations of the education system and the broadening nature of Academies and Trusts, including greater accountability pressures and emphasis on both raising standards and widening the social goals of schooling as outlined in the Education White Paper (DfE, 2016).

This course tackles issues directly related to the current field of national education and educational leadership. It challenges you to develop deeper critical thinking around how to meet the needs of policy and the needs of your students and staff. It does this by exploring strategic leadership approaches and practices, and how to lead teams effectively.

You will work through the process of initiating and driving change at an individual, group and/or organisational level. This will be taught by offering learning opportunities on how to lead change, developing the capacity to change through coaching and mentoring, and reflective ethical leadership

The Senior Education Leadership Programme provides you with the opportunity to enhance your knowledge and practical skills in an environment designed to maximise your learning and leadership experience through a variety of learning activities, opportunities, and working collaboratively with peers.

This course is delivered by our training partner, In Professional Development.
