    Stepping with Confidence into Secondary Senior Leadership 2026-27

    Delivered by the Secondary HIAS adviser, this in-depth programme supports the future senior leaders in our schools. This multi session course is aimed at established middle leaders who are thinking about the next steps in their career path. It would also be appropriate for newly appointed assistant headteachers or lead practitioners. With many schools now 'growing their own' future leaders, this programme will support with a focus on ensuring colleagues understand the wide remit of a senior leader and give them inspiration, challenge and support to fulfil that role effectively. This will ensure governors continue to be able to appoint experienced leaders ready to tackle the broad challenges facing senior leadership teams today.

    Embedding Ordinarily Available Provision (OAP) within High Quality Inclusive Teaching – 26-27 Cohort 1

    This programme aims to ensure best practice of high-quality inclusive teaching in all classrooms, all of the time. Exploration of the published HIAS guidance: Ordinarily available provision and special educational needs and disabilities support will be a key thread of this programme as we explore approaches to implementation across different settings. 

    Sessions will provide opportunities to reflect on current practice, identifying strengths and next steps for your school to ensure effective implementation of high-quality inclusive teaching and ordinarily available provision.  Throughout the programme, there will be opportunities to hear from experts from across educational services in Hampshire related to the specific needs of your school. 

    The course price entitles each school to bring up to two delegates to the sessions. The aim is that the leader of teaching and learning, who has strategic oversight, attends with a classroom teacher to facilitate an open dialogue about the school’s specific context and to enable change at both classroom and whole school level.
