Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:

5/5
Running my school strategically and operationally, managing change and school improvement, developing staff and motivating teams.

To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

5/5
The Level 7 Senior Leadership programme was both informative and enjoyable.

Skills Development

Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?

5/5
I learnt new skills in terms of the use of a variety of models for leading school improvement and change and also reminded myself that I can study and write at Level 7.

Structure and Support

How well organised/structured is your programme?

5/5
Very well organised and structured. My learning mentor was particularly good which really helped. The AI lectures were somewhat disappointing but the face-to-face days were very enjoyable.

How much support do you receive from your employer?

5/5
My line manager was very supportive of me undertaking the programme - though not much practical help was necessary or could feasibly be given!

How much support do you receive from your training provider when working towards your qualifications?

5/5
Again, the learning mentor was particularly supportive and helpful.

How well do you feel that your qualification (through your training provider) helps you to perform better in your role?

5/5
I think it has sharpened my practice and given me a variety of additional tools to support my work.

Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

5/5
Yes lots...
