Seminar for Co-Curricular Deputy Heads

Dates & Venues

    This seminar is intended to support newly appointed Co-Curricular Deputy or Assistant Heads – as well as teachers intending to apply for these roles this year. These are relatively new positions in schools. As a result, priorities and operating processes are often not yet firmly established. The course will look at the aims of the position, and the methods by which these can be pursued, and quality controlled, across the whole school. Frequently encountered frustrations with challenges will also be considered, alongside the various communication mechanisms and people management skills that are crucial to success.
