2 days training – 2 years of activity! Whole School Training Package

Posted on May 5, 2015 in Learn to lead

Learn to lead is now helping to empower and support young people in over 150 schools & colleges nationwide. 

Increasingly Ofsted are commenting positively about the Learn to lead programme in their reports. Learn to lead can have a strong impact on pupil’s spiritual, moral and cultural development as well as behaviour and safety.

Based on previous experience and success Learn to lead is now offering a complete whole school approach with an In School Training package. Available to new schools and as a top up renewal programme for existing Learn to lead schools.

The 2 days in school training will share to the whole school so tools can be used consistently and in different ways, from feedback from a class about their lesson, to social action teams developing around issues students are passionate about or wish to change, to students in Learning Support developing their own projects.

Students will gain the benefits in confidence, resilience and ‘soft skills’ that come from the Learn to lead approach.  Students who are vulnerable or in any way disadvantaged will be particularly supported by the training given to SEN staff, an ideal use of pupil premium.

It will succeed and be sustained because it spreads the understanding more widely from the start and encourages many more staff and students to develop the project in co-production with one another.

The package covers two years of activity to ensure the benefits of the initial training and investment are realised for the whole school.

Also Included:

  • Introductory presentation to all school staff/governors at a twilight staff meeting
  • Training for pastoral staff, deputy head responsible for student participation and SEN staff
  • Learn to lead resource pack, including sticky wall and hexies
  • Targeting 20 most difficult to reach (SEN/Pupil Premium) to support students to run their own projects
  • Outcomes Star training (extra, optional) and use of this tool for students to track their growth in confidence and skills while having ownership of their personal journey of change
  • Learn to lead “THIS IS OUR SCHOOL’ survey to adapt for their schools
  • “THIS IS OUR SCHOOL” planning session resource, designed so every student has a chance to look at the results of the survey in an extended tutor group session to come up with ideas for project teams to improve their experience of ‘School.’
  • Year 1: further day’s support for each school to ensure approach is embedded and added value is being maximised
  • Year 2: 1 day in school support and Review & Renew session, bringing together student and staff members of the school to share progress to ensure added value is maximised and data (anecdotal and quantitative) is gathered to evidence improvements
