The Local Authority Education Skills and Learning team is working with school leaders, to extend professional development opportunities for current and aspiring leaders in Suffolk schools. 

The existing range of opportunities currently available to leaders in maintained schools includes: 

• Interim senior leadership opportunities 
• Mentoring 
• Coaching 
• Headteacher network meetings 
• New Headteacher Induction 

In January we began a new addition to our leadership professional development with the first of a range of bitesize sessions for current headteachers, deputy headteachers, and anyone aspiring to a senior leadership role. These are being held half-termly, led by LA officers and school leaders. The content of these sessions is based on current issues in education. 

The next session will be ‘Top ten tips for getting the most out of your staff’. It will be held on Microsoft Teams on Wednesday 1 May, 8.00 – 9.00am.

The cost of a session is £90 an hour, which will be fully funded for LA maintained schools.
