Creating the Remarkable
A virtual leadership development programme designed for individual Senior Leadership Teams within International Schools
No organisation can be a great organisation without high leadership capital.
For future educational leadership to have a continual impact, there is a need for all senior leaders to master and demonstrate a modern set of leadership behaviours and attitudes.
This programme offers the knowledge and skills to enable senior leaders to articulate a vision for increasing capacity for improvement and to design and implement an appropriate strategy for whole school improvement that is focused on maximising pupil outcomes. It addresses the ‘big picture’ of what contributes to organisational success and the role played by senior leaders in optimising cultural capital that maximise learning through focusing on results.
ABOUT THIS PROGRAMME
Objectives:
-
To further improve school outcomes by increasing leadership capital
-
To develop, establish and embed a professional learning programme for current Senior Leadership Teams
-
Ensuring consistency in the quality of leadership and management and succession planning.
-
To increase professional awareness and understanding of organisational success and the sustainable leadership competencies needed to lead a school in an ever-changing and complex world.
Why?
There are virtually no documented instances of outstanding schools being developed without the leadership by highly-effective leaders. Many other factors may contribute to such developments, but leadership is the catalyst.
SUMMARY

The programme will investigate how a Senior Leadership Team can maximise its influence using practical processes and frameworks and gain a deeper understanding of essential leadership qualities, aligning these with the organisation’s core purpose and goals.
