Course Description

Introduction

Experienced educational consultants will look at how leaders work to close attainment gaps. This may be looking closely at the ways children from disadvantaged backgrounds are served. We will work to unpick the underlying issues and evidence strategies to address inequality. Consultants will help to develop strategies to close attainment gaps and measure their impact.

Rationale

We understand the link between family income and educational achievement has become more deep-seated since the pandemic. We know that we can support schools to overcome these challenges - as evidenced by almost a decade of closing the gap before COVID.

These sessions are suitable for:

School leadership teams working to explore underlying issues for disadvantaged pupils and those working to close any attainment gap.

Supporting Capacity

School leaders will work with consultants with experience reviewing provision for disadvantaged pupils by analysing teaching and learning, policies and practices. Consultants will support the school in developing its leadership capacity for disadvantaged pupils and the profile of its support across the setting. We will engage with practitioners in defining a clear direction for consistency of support for disadvantaged pupils.

Been having first aid training for 13 years. This was the best one I've attended. Far more informative and covered more likely scenarios that would happen in the school setting

I feel this course has been better than previous first aid courses I've completed. More focus on the types of injuries that we would likely treat in our role
