About this Event
Whether you aspire to become a middle leader, have just stepped into the role, or bring experience from your current or previous leadership positions, this initiative offers a range of options tailored to your needs. This course is for the Existing Middle Leader Programme.
Existing
You are currently a middle leader or may be new to post having already had some previous experience. You want to enhance and deepen your knowledge and understanding and develop further within your current role.
The programme for each route starts in November. You can complete a whole route across an academic year, progressing onto the next route the following year should you wish to do so.
Each module will be delivered by expert colleagues from the Red Kite Learning Trust. Some modules may require pre-session work to be carried out and you will be given the option to carry out additional self-directed study in your own time.
