We are delighted to be in partnership with Hays Education, hosting a series of free breakfast seminars, bringing together thought leaders and education leaders up and down the country to explore our most pressing education issues; and what the possibilities are with a longer-term vision for our Education system.
Hear from experienced school leaders, working in different contexts, across different phases, and with different approaches, about how they transformed schools to improve outcomes for their students, teams, and wider communities.
