An incredibly exciting Starling day- the training manuals are ready and we've had a wonderful group of colleagues from both L.EA.D and wider join us.

With a generous grant from @towerpoetry, @EngMediaCentre is launching a project to 'map' poetry in secondary schools in England. We're starting with a national survey. If you teach English, please fill in the questionnaire so we get your views & insights. tinyurl.com/3u7d9by7

Having been an AHT for 9 years- it’s a DEMANDING job. (Not saying other areas aren’t!) We do EVERY duty, every day. Cover lessons. Stay behind for all/most school events. Line manage several people. Support them with parental meetings. And teach- a lot!
It’s not a job that schools can afford to lose.
❌ Ministers have suggested rising numbers of assistant heads could be the place to target cost-cutting as schools are forced to make savings to fund future teacher pay rises.
So what’s behind the rise, and is a cut do-able? @lydiachSW investigates...

I’m interested in exploring alternative leadership structures.
Has anyone moved away from the traditional HT–DHT–AHT model?
I’d love to hear what senior leadership models you’re using and how they’re working in practice.

It’s a strange time of year. Too late to set an initiative up for the academic year; too early to write something off until next academic year. Here’s 7 things to be considering as you embark on the Spring term as a SENDCO.

NEW: English councils have cut culture spending by more than 50% since 2009-10, further jeopardising local access to the arts.
The Campaign for the Arts has launched an open call for information from the public, as councils consider next year's budgets.
