SSAT Leaders for the Future
Who is it For?
The Leaders for the Future programme is aimed at teachers with leadership potential who are in the early stages of their career. The focus is on developing leadership skills, knowledge and mind-sets, which can be used immediately to increase their impact beyond their own classroom through influencing others and working on wider projects.
What Does it Involve?
There are five course modules. Each module is delivered over a two hour training session which takes place after school alternativly at Heartlands Academy and Shenley Academy.
National Accreditation
All modules will be accredited by the SSAT and delegates will receive a certificate for modules completed.
SSAT leadership programmes offer routes to achieving Masters Accreditation through a 30 CAT points exemption from University of Nottingham course modules. This is applicable for participants completing all five modules and also SSAT Lead Practitioner accreditation. Delegates pursuing this route will be expected to complete a school improvement impact study, this can be used as evidence towards Lead Practitioner Status.
