Leadership for education
     

Schools leadership workshops

We deliver a range of one day workshops aimed at school leaders.

They are designed to be interactive and engaging in order to enhance skills, knowledge and understanding of key policy and strategic developments.

National College for School Leadership has licensed Teesside University, under the Serco Partnership, to deliver workshops which are practical, relevant and applicable to leaders within schools.

Our open workshops will be delivered across the North West and led by experienced facilitators with local knowledge, including serving headteachers and school business managers (SBMS)
