Starts Wednesday 6th October 2021 Connected Heads is a group of between 4 and 6 school leaders, who meet regularly to support one another in their learning in order to take purposeful action on work issues. The process is led by a facilitator, who enables the set members to ask searching questions and the school leader to reflect on the actions to be taken, supporting the process with guidance and useful models and tools. Programme Overview In every session (a half-day, half-termly) each school leader (learner) has the opportunity to address key issues. The ‘learner’ retains responsibility for and ownership of their issues, solutions and actions. The Connected Heads group actively listen, providing the individual ‘learner’ with space and time to think through real issues and challenges and to identify new ways forward. The group works together, acting as coaches for the ‘learner’, listening, providing space for them to think, and asking relevant open questions to help them find their own way forward.
