About the Programmes
Developing Middle Leaders
In the early stages of leadership, it is important to establish who you are as a leader, foster investment by your team, and understand the process of leading sustained change. Participants will identify a change they want to address, and through the programme, learn to lead others and lead change through the lens of this specific issue. Participants will ‘learn about’ and ‘learn to’ lead with impact in a school context. The programme will include six sessions over the year; three sessions in the Autumn term, and three spread across the remainder of the year. This is to encourage learning, development and reflective practice over time.
