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.
