Early Years Leaders
Early years subject leader communities meet twice a year. Teachers can share best practice and take away ideas, templates, and models that can be adapted to the context of their school. Each community will deep dive into example curriculums analysing what works well, what might be done differently, how learning can be taken back into school, and practical strategies embedded. Subject leads will be able to share best practice and take away ideas, templates and models that can be adapted to the context of their school. The modules will consist of a blended mix of learning including classroom-style exercises, case studies, as well as an open forum for questions and answers. All training courses are led by successful practitioners who are current serving teachers and leaders, doing the job day in, day out. We want to support each other to enable growth as reflective and impactful teachers and leaders, as well as to embed outstanding practice. At our core is the focus on collaboration – teachers sharing best practice with fellow teachers.
