After the success of using The Power of Teams by @Mr_Crome last year with our middle leadership team, we’re going again next year - this time with Middle Leadership Mastery by @MrARobbins The year is planned out - dividing the book into fortnightly sections - with coordinating book looks, drop-ins, student voice etc. we’ve sequenced this really carefully so it feels aligned and intelligent. Our Line Management aims to do 3 things: 1️⃣ develop the individual through ‘leaders are readers’. 2️⃣ strengthen the team through joint QA, improvement planning, and PD. 3️⃣ run the team (operational work which is necessary for the smooth running of any team).

Proud to share a piece co-written with my brilliant friend & Headteacher, Dr @LizzyFord8 has been published in @CharteredColl’s latest issue of Impact on inclusive pedagogy. It is a privilege to contribute to a journal rooted in evidence-informed practice. my.chartered.college/author/…

STEP 7 Students will then reapply their knowledge to a different context to provide additional practice. READ, REVIEW, REAPPLY. What this approach allows is pupils to demonstrate application of knowledge across the curriculum and not just isolated components / composites. /8

Sure Start centres saved UK govt £2 for every £1 spent, study finds Positive impacts were widespread and “remarkably long lasting”, producing better health, education & social care outcomes for enrolled families. And then they were axed by AusteriTories theguardian.com/education/20…

A fantastic day with colleagues across the West Midlands looking carefully at the approach and strategy around attendance in school.
Delighted to be supporting @educationgovuk ‘Breaking Down the Barriers to Opportunity; Transforming Secondary School Attendance’ @karljrog leading a workshop on ‘Evidence led Implementation’ focusing on behaviours that influence change.

1/ Thread: Interview season In addition to 'exit interviews' (when people leave), it is also worth carrying out 'stay interviews' for those who have remained for 3 to 5 years. What are the pull factors for your school that you might not be aware of?
